The industry’s most versatile and advanced fresh air system, created to simplify the design, specification and installation process while delivering superior air quality in a compact design.

• Quickest installation in its category saving the installer up to 20 minutes per unit, thanks to the auto-balancing and self-adjusting VIRTUO™ technology*
• Airflow configuration can be swapped with the flip of an integrated selection switch** , eliminating the need for specifying different models to accommodate mirrored floor plans and providing simplicity throughout the design and installation processes
• Horizontal and wall mount options provide location flexibility to accommodate various application needs
• Integrated LCD screen provides intuitive CFM selection in 1 CFM increments throughout the airflow range providing real-time CFM and watt usage values
• Equipped with PMSM ECM motors for reliable and energy efficient operation
• Fault indicator display (FID) responding to filter maintenance, low airflow condition, and system sensor failures while providing real-time airflow and power usage.

*US Patent No. 11168916 – Canadian patent pending

Fan Curves with VIRTUO™

Thanks to VIRTUO™ technology, no need to balance the unit manually. Both PMSM ECM motors are controlled by an artificial intelligence performing 120 readings per minute then processing this information to maintain the requested airflow.
For typical installation, VIRTUO™ will ensure a balanced ventilation at every selected speed regardless of the weather conditions, the type of connection, the variable speed furnace/AHU, the stack effect, the filter clogging and so on. This results in peace of mind for installers and users knowing that the unit will always remain balanced and that it will maintain its maximum heat/energy recovery efficiency.
