and properly.
5. INSTALLATION
5.1 locating tHe unit
Choose an appropriate location for the unit:
• So as to provide easy access to the interior cabinet for quarterly and annual maintenance. Plan for a 27-in. clearance in front
of the unit for the door to open. If that is not possible, an 18-in. clearance is acceptable, in which case the door will have to be
removed for maintenance to be performed.
• Within a conditioned space with an ambient temperature kept between 18°C (65°F) and 40°C (104°F) and a maximum
relative humidity of 60%.
• Close to an exterior wall, so as to limit the length of the insulated flexible duct to and from the unit.
• Away from hot chimneys, electrical panel and other fire hazards.
• Allow for a power source (standard outlet) within 6 feet.
• HRV: close to a drain. If no drain is close by, use a pail to collect run-off.
