5. TYPICAL INSTALLATIONS (CONT’D)
5.3.1 BASEMENT
• Ideal for homes without a central
furnace in the basement. Allows
filtration and a better air circulation
throughout the house.
• Easy access to perform the periodic
filter maintenance and servicing.
• Offers an ambient temperature
above freezing (32°F - 0°C).
• The HEPA Filtration model GSFH1K
has no connection to the outside,
so all parts encircled are not required.
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS:
• Installing the unit near an exterior
wall will shorten the length of the
insulated ducts (not necessary for
HEPA Filtration only model GSFH1K).
• If a HEPA Filtration Fresh Air &
Heat Recovery Ventilation model
GSHH3K is installed, a water drain
must be close to collect the run-off.
5.3 STAND ALONE INSTALLATION
(Primarily for homes with no central air mover or equipped with wall furnaces, radiant hot water or electric baseboard heating.)
VH0039
Only for the models GSVH1K,
GSHH3K and GSEH3K that
use fresh outside air.
Drain required only for the
GSHH3K model.
5.3.2 GARAGE CLOSET
• Ideal for homes without a central
furnace, or limited space applications,
allows filtration and a better air
circulation throughout the house.
• Easy access to perform the periodic
maintenance (twice a year).
• The HEPA Filtration model GSFH1K
has no connection to outside, so all
parts encircled are not required.
VH0046
Only for the models GSVH1K,
GSHH3K and GSEH3K that
use fresh outside air.
CAUTION
When the ambient temperature for the unit location is below freezing (32°F - 0°C), the unit must run continuously to prevent
condensation.
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS:
• Installing the unit near an exterior wall will shorten the length of the insulated ducts
(not necessary for HEPA Filtration model GSFH1K).
• If a HEPA Filtration Fresh Air & Heat Recovery Ventilation model GSHH3K is installed, a water drain must be close to collect
the run-off.
• All ducts must be insulated.
• For the HEPA Filtration, Fresh Air & Heat Recovery Ventilation (GSHH3K) and the HEPA Filtration, Fresh Air & Energy
Recovery Ventilation (GSEH3K) models only, if the ambient temperature around the unit drops below freezing (32°F - 0°C),
go to Section 6.12 (Low Temperature Applications) for instructions on drain line protection (GSHH3K only) and other cold
environment installation details.
