Product Description
MINI performs three functions. First, it supplies fresh air to a space
(ventilation). Secondly, the fresh air is purified with filters while
pollutants are expelled from the space (purification). Thirdly, the supplied
fresh air is passively conditioned depending on the outdoor conditions
(comfort). CLIMATE, which uses the same “plug and play” form factor as MINI,
is an exhaust and supply fan system for thermal energy recovery, and can
continuously ventilate rooms, apartments, and houses. The ventilation products
are visually depicted in Figure 1.
NOTE The direction of the supply and exhaust air streams are reversed for
CLIMATE as compared to MINI.
NOTE The product shall be used in only indoor spaces.
NOTE Please review the specifications of the product in the data sheet.

The approximate external dimensions of the enclosure of the product are ~15.7
in × ~11.8 in × ~6.3 in (~39.9 cm × 29.9 cm × ~16.0 cm). The actual product
that is received by the customer may slightly differ from the images in Figure
- Product variants may carry a combination of zero, one, or multiple fan
controllers and/or switch. Note. Figure 1 is not drawn to scale.

NOTE For off-grid use, a 2.1mm×5.5mm male plug connector can be used to
directly power MINI from a source that supplies 12V DC. CLIMATE can be powered
by a source that supplies 5V / 12V DC.
NOTE The product shall be installed in spaces with Class 1 and 2 air sources
as defined in ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1 2019.
NOTE If possible, the product may operate at Normal and Boost modes.
Warning
Please observe these warnings:
Failure to comply with the warnings may result in fire, property damage,
electric shock, injury, or death.
To prevent suffocation, electric shock, injury, or death, the customer is
responsible to ensure that children shall NOT access the product.
The product shall not be modified, disassembled, or serviced. The product

orifices shall NOT be blocked if the product is powered.
The enclosure shall not be opened if the product is powered. MINI operates by
using 12V DC and shall NOT be directly connected to
the wall power or mains electricity. It is strongly recommended to use an AC-
to-DC power adapter that is rated for 12V DC power supply and can handle at
least 3A. An adapter that is rated for 5V / 12V DC and at least 2A is
recommended for CLIMATE.
As soon as possible, the power adapter cord shall be safely disconnected
from the wall power if liquid spills on or around the product.
The power adapter shall only be connected to an electrical receptacle that
is permanently installed in a space.
The electrical parts of the product (i.e., power switch, power connector,
fan controller(s) if applicable, and fans) shall not be handled.
The cables in the product shall not be disconnected, changed, or modified.

ducts shall NOT be connected to external appliances such
as dryers, fans, furnaces, etc.
The product shall not be powered until the ducts are installed. Window/Door: A
pair of boards with each having one hole or a single
board with two holes shall be fastened to a section of a window/door, and the
ducts shall be inserted into the holes.
Wall/Ceiling: The ducts shall be inserted into two holes that are drilled
through the wall or ceiling that can support the weight.
To power the product, connect the plug of the power adapter to the wall
power. Next, connect the free end of the power adapter to the power connector
port and the product will operate in the Normal mode. The Boost mode can be
activated by pressing the power switch until it latches.
NOTE The Boost mode can be transitioned to Normal by simply unlatching the power switch.
To shut down the product, disconnect the power adapter cord from the
power connector port, and then disconnect the plug of the power adapter from
the wall power.

Maintenance
The product is intended to operate with minimal maintenance. However, a few
activities may be performed during the course of using the product. The
product shall be shut down before ANY maintenance activity is performed.
NOTE Filters shall not be used in the exhaust vent of CLIMATE.
Filter It is recommended to change the filters at least once in three months
depending on the outdoor air quality. The procedure for changing the filters
is presented accordingly:
START: Gently unlock the latches of the enclosure and open its lid.
MINI (supply vent)
Hold the enclosure firmly with one hand and carefully pull out the vent
with the other hand.
Replace the old filter in the port of the vent with a new filter (MERV4 or
HEPA) that can fit into a circular shape with a diameter of 3 in (~7.6 cm).
Carefully re-attach the vent to the product.
MINI (exhaust vent) or CLIMATE (supply vent)
The filter(s) are accessible in the vent and the vent itself does not need to
be removed. If applicable, a clamp, filter guard, or elastic band (not shown
in Figure 1) may first need to be removed from the vent before accessing the
filter(s).
Replace the exact number of MERV4 filter(s) that came with the product.
Carefully use the clamp, filter guard, or elastic band to re-attach the vent
to
the product.
FINISH: Carefully close the lid of the enclosure and lock the latches.
NOTE Do not apply excessive force when tightening the clamp.
Duct A damaged duct can be replaced by using a similar duct with a diameter of
3 in (~7.6 cm). The following steps can be followed when changing a duct:
Loosen the nuts of the clamp of the damaged duct. Remove the damaged duct and
attach a new duct. Tighten the nuts of the clamp.
NOTE The air-to-air exchanger of the product shall not be washed.
Air-to-Air Exchanger The air-to-air exchanger may be cleaned annually by
implementing these steps:
START: Detach the ducts from the installation orifices.
MINI (supply vent) or CLIMATE (exhaust vent)
Remove the vent as explained in an aforementioned step. Insert the hose of a
powered vacuum cleaner into the port of the vent by
up to 3 in (~7.6 cm) to extract accumulated dirt, if any.
Remove the hose of the vacuum cleaner from the port of the vent. Re-attach the
vent to the product.
MINI (exhaust duct) or CLIMATE (supply duct)
Carefully insert the vacuum cleaner hose by up to 2 ft (~60.9 cm) into the
duct to extract accumulated dirt, if any. Ensure that the duct is not damaged
in the process of inserting the hose.
Remove the hose of the vacuum cleaner from the duct.
FINISH: Re-attach the ducts to the installation orifices.
Electrical Parts An electrical part shall only be replaced if it is faulty. In this situation, the product shall be shut down and a qualified service technician may be consulted.
Caveat
The electrical parts of the product are deemed to be certified to ensure
customer safety.
Notably, the product operates on the load side of a Class 2 power source in accordance
with Canada Electric Code Rule 16222 and US National Electric Code Class 2
Article 72541. The product may also be subject to the exemption(s) outlined in the
