FAQ
Q: What is the purpose of a heat recovery ventilation
system?
A: Heat recovery ventilation systems recover thermal energy from
the air inside your home and use it to pre-condition fresh filtered
supply air drawn in from outside. This helps increase the
temperature of the supply air in winter and reduce it in
summer.
Q: What are the mounting types available for the Aerofresh
range?
A: The Aerofresh range offers in-wall, horizontal ceiling, and
upright mounting options based on your installation requirements.
Please refer to the user manual for specific details.
Q: How do I control the Aerofresh units?
A: The Aerofresh 60 comes with a remote control for full control
in the palm of your hands. The Aerofresh 180 and 280 have their
respective controllers, which are multi-function remote control
panels with LCD displays.

Aerofresh provides a healthier, well ventilated indoor space with simple and

and installation requirements for most homes.
Heat recovery ventilation units recover thermal energy from the air inside
your home and use this to pre-condition fresh filtered supply air drawn in
from outside. In winter this increases the temperature of the supply air,
while in summer this reduces the temperature of the supply air.

AEROFRESH 60
The Aerofresh 60 decentralised heat recovery unit provides continuous
ventilation to ensure a home feels fresh and comfortable to live in. Home
occupants can enjoy a healthier indoor environment as the Aerofresh will
improve the air quality, while being energy efficient to run and very simple
to operate. The Aerofresh 60 units are installed in synchronised pairs to
provide balanced ventilation (non pressurised) and promote higher levels of
air circulation.

· Regenerative ceramic core heat exchanger with high thermal efficiency (up to
80%)
· Fitted with a high efficiency EC motor that is designed for continuous
running
· Unique winglet-type impeller provides increased efficiency and low noise
· Integrated humidity control detects elevated humidity levels and increases
flow rates
· Comes with a plastic grille with insect screen and an aluminium weatherproof
hood with acoustic lining and insect screen

AEROFRESH 60 HRV UNITS
Regenerative ceramic core heat exchanger with high thermal efficiency
Balanced energy recovery mode
Aerofresh 60 is installed as two synchronised units, providing the home with
pre-conditioned fresh air.
How it works
· Aerofresh 60 units are installed in pairs in separate habitable rooms. Do
not use in wet or odorous rooms (as this can circulate moisture and odour)
· Both units alternate their air flow direction every 70 seconds (approx.) and
are synchronised with each other so while one unit is exhausting air the other
is supplying air into the home
· The Aerofresh unit transfers the thermal energy from air inside the building
to the incoming fresh air
· Helps maintain healthy indoor air as well as prevent condensation and mould
growth
· 8 to 10mm door undercut allows air flow when doors are closed
· When installing in a bedroom, ensure to position away from bed heads
