Design Drawing TipsDesign Drawing Tips

• Include all branches and connections

Design tips:Design tips:o Minimize duct lengths o Minimize bends o Use 45° elbows instead of 90° o Use “Y” s instead of a Teeso Join the unit and duct system with

non-metallic insulated duct 12 inches in length (noise / vibration)

Page 17: Welcome to Field Controls: HRV / ERV Training HRV / ERV Training Duct Systems Duct Systems Part 3 Part 3.

4 - 4 - Installation Installation

ConsiderationConsiderationss• Fresh air intake and

stale air exhaust locations

• Condensate drainage

• Space is conditioned Not below 60°F Not above 100°F

• Access for service Maintenance / Cleaning

Page 18: Welcome to Field Controls: HRV / ERV Training HRV / ERV Training Duct Systems Duct Systems Part 3 Part 3.

Ducts:Ducts:

• Keep duct runs short

• Minimize 90° elbows

• 45° elbows preferred

• Y’s instead of tees

• Rigid duct recommended

• Energy Star homes use mastic to seal duct joints

Duct Systems TestDuct Systems Test

Page 20: Welcome to Field Controls: HRV / ERV Training HRV / ERV Training Duct Systems Duct Systems Part 3 Part 3.

1. Flex duct must be stretched tightly and supported properly with

appropriate hangers.

True or False

Page 21: Welcome to Field Controls: HRV / ERV Training HRV / ERV Training Duct Systems Duct Systems Part 3 Part 3.

2. Metal duct seams should be sealed with mastic to pass a Energy star 3.0 pressurized duct leakage test?

True or False

Page 22: Welcome to Field Controls: HRV / ERV Training HRV / ERV Training Duct Systems Duct Systems Part 3 Part 3.

3. When installing a HRV or ERV in conjunction with an existing forced air HVAC system you will use:

A.  Partially Dedicated Installation Method B.  Simplified Installation Method C.  Fully Dedicated Installation Method D.  Partially Dedicated or Simplified Installation MethodE.  None of the above

Page 23: Welcome to Field Controls: HRV / ERV Training HRV / ERV Training Duct Systems Duct Systems Part 3 Part 3.

4. When installing an HRV or ERV without a ducted forced air system you will use:

A.  Partially Dedicated Installation Method B.  Simplified Installation Method C.  Fully Dedicated Installation Method D.  Partially Dedicated or Simplified Installation MethodE.  None of the above.

Page 24: Welcome to Field Controls: HRV / ERV Training HRV / ERV Training Duct Systems Duct Systems Part 3 Part 3.

5. Simplified Installation: stale air is exhausted from the return air of the ducted HVAC equipment and an equal amount of fresh air is replaced back into the return air.

True or False

Page 25: Welcome to Field Controls: HRV / ERV Training HRV / ERV Training Duct Systems Duct Systems Part 3 Part 3.

6. Another name for a Simplified Installation

A. The Supply Return MethodB. The Return / Supply MethodC. A Partially Dedicated SystemD. The Return / Return MethodE. None of the above

Page 26: Welcome to Field Controls: HRV / ERV Training HRV / ERV Training Duct Systems Duct Systems Part 3 Part 3.

True or False

Page 27: Welcome to Field Controls: HRV / ERV Training HRV / ERV Training Duct Systems Duct Systems Part 3 Part 3.

8. Partially Dedicated System: stale air is exhausted from specific locations (bathroom, kitchen etc) and an equal amount of fresh air is replaced back into the HVAC system return air.

True or False

Page 28: Welcome to Field Controls: HRV / ERV Training HRV / ERV Training Duct Systems Duct Systems Part 3 Part 3.

9. Install a backdraft damper on:

A.  Partially Dedicated Installation B.  Simplified Installation C.  Fully Dedicated Installation D.  Partially Dedicated and Simplified Installation E.  None of the above.
