No power to unit. Check that the ventilator is plugged in.
Check that the power switch is turned ON.
Check that the control is turned ON.
Check that the circuit breaker has not tripped.
Ventilator blower is
running but with little or
no airflow.
Pressure drop across
ventilator is higher than
0.4”w.c.
Check ventilator air filter and wash or replace.
Check for blocked duct work and clear.
Verify that the outlet collar with backflow damper is installed on the outlet side of the ventilator.
Check if backflow damper is blocked or stuck and remove obstruction.
Ventilator blower is

If no float switch installed check that the jumper is installed at the float switch terminals on the
control board.
Coil frosting. Lack of or reduced airflow. Check ventilator air filter and wash or replace.
Check for blocked duct work.
Inlet air conditions below 60°F. Increase the humidity setting.
Inlet air temperature is
outside of the 50°F –
104°F range or the dew
point is below 40°F and
there is a demand for
dehumidification.
Verify all ductwork is properly sealed.
The ventilation damper
does not open when the
HVAC fan is active.
Cycle time has been
met.
The damper will not open if the Ventilation Time has already been met.
Ventilator is not draining
properly.
Drain line blocked or unit
not level.
Verify that the unit is level.
Check the drain line blockages and for a continuous downward slope.
The HVAC fan turns on
unexpectedly.
Ventilator is sampling or
ventilation in progress.
The ventilator will turn on the HVAC fan during air sampling or as needed to meet the ventilation
time.
Ventilator is producing
hot air.
Normal function. Air is reheated across the condenser coil, resulting in a temperature rise between inlet and outlet.
Display shows “OFF”
even when the ON/OFF
button is pushed.
A manual override
switch has been
installed and has turned
the unit OFF.
Turn the manual override switch OFF.
