All dimensions shown in inches.
• Recommended duct sizes are based on velocities across the
cfm range of each model at approximately 800 feet per minute
(FPM) at minimum airflow and up to 1600 fpm at maximum
airflow. Recommended duct sizes are only intended to be a
guide and may not satisfy the requirements of the project.
Refer to plans for appropriate job specific duct size and/or
velocity limitations.
• Straight duct lengths were calculated based on 100% effective
duct length requirements as prescribed in AMCA Publication
201. Calculated values have been rounded up to nearest foot.
Ductwork Connections
Examples of poor and good fan-to-duct connections
are shown below. Airflow out of the fan
should be directed straight or curve
the same direction as
the fan wheel rotates.
Poor duct installation
will result in low airflow
and other system
effects.

Rail Mounting / Layout
1. Rails designed to handle the weight of the ERV e
should be positioned as shown on the diagram
(rails by others).
2. Make sure that rail positioning does not interfere
with the supply air discharge opening or the
exhaust air intake opening on the ERV
e unit.
Avoid area dimensioned “B” below.
3. Rails should extend beyond the unit a minimum
of 12 inches on each side.
4. Set unit on rails.
