Installation, compatibility and orientation
No, never block the condensate drain.
Even though enthalpic heat exchangers produce only a minimal amount of condensate due to moisture transfer, in severe frost and specific humidity conditions, condensate can still occur. Blocking the drain could cause irreversible damage to your unit.
Yes, installation is simple. Just follow the instructions provided with your unit. As with a standard exchanger, it needs to be removed occasionally for cleaning – the process is the same, except that you put the enthalpic exchanger back in instead.
Feel free to contact us with any unit model. We will do our utmost to provide you with a 100% compatible exchanger, regardless of the type of ventilation unit you have.
In any case, the exchangers we supply are identical to the original parts used by the unit manufacturers, and in many cases, our exchangers are even of higher quality. However, we must clearly state that we are not official distributors of spare parts from the unit manufacturers. Transparency is very important to us.
The enthalpic plate works the same from both sides, so the orientation of the plate itself does not matter. However, it is essential that after cleaning the exchanger is always reinstalled in the same orientation, ensuring that the channels for fresh air remain for fresh air and the channels for exhaust air remain for exhaust air.
