instructions provided in the manual. Installation should be carried
out by a competent person.
Check for adequate space for installation and ensure
compatibility with the duct diameter. Wall mounting is standard,
but other mounting options are available using optional kits.
Ensure the unit’s operation does not interfere with open-flue
appliances. Consider clearance distances and consult local
regulations if needed.
Keep the unit out of reach of children and ensure they are
supervised around it. Do not allow children to perform maintenance
tasks.
Electrical Connection:
Ensure the unit can be disconnected from the mains power after
installation. Incorporate a local isolator in the fixed wiring as
per regulations.
Use the supplied flexible cable for wiring into the cable gland
to prevent damage to the unit. If the mains cable is damaged, seek
professional assistance for replacement.
Do not tamper with electronic circuit boards inside the product.
The unit requires a continuous electrical power supply and should
not be wired through a light switch.

If installing outside the UK, check if the fuse in the pattress
box (SELV Variants) needs to be changed to comply with local
standards.
FAQ:
Q: Can the unit be wall mounted upside down?

Safety
Read and understand these instructions before beginning installation. The unit
should be installed by a competent person.
Check there is space to fit the unit in your chosen location. As standard it
can be installed using 100mm or 125mm inside diameter duct. With the optional
adaptor, a 150mm duct can also be used.
The unit can be wall mounted as standard, or ceiling, recess, inline and
window mounted using optional kits (see page 15 for further information). The
unit cannot be wall mounted upside down (with the electronic boards at the
bottom) as this will void the warranty.
Ensure the operation of the unit does not affect the operation of openflue
appliances. If you are unsure, please consult local regulations or a qualified
gas engineer. Consider the external cowl location in relation to open-flues
from appliances e.g. boilers. You must ensure the cowl is positioned a minimum
distance of 300mm away in all directions. EnviroVent recommends at least 2m
clearance.
In kitchens, if the unit is fitted above a cooker, it must be installed a
minimum distance of 1 metre above any hob, and not have a pullcord fitted.
This unit is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision and usage instruction by a person
responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the unit.
Cleaning and user maintenance must not be performed by children.

Electrical Connection
The unit must be able to be disconnected from the Mains supply after
installation. When wiring the unit to the Mains power supply, a suitable local
isolator must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the IET
Wiring Regulations.
Connection to the fixed wiring must be made outside the unit in a suitable
location, following IET Wiring Regulations.
The power cable running into the cable gland must remain the supplied flexible
cable (not a solid core lighting and mains cable). If any other type of cable
is forced into the cable gland, the unit will be damaged, voiding the
warranty.
If the mains cable is damaged, it must be replaced by EnviroVent, an
authorized service agent, or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a
hazard.
Do not remove or tamper with the electronic circuit boards inside the product.
The unit requires a continuous electrical power supply and should not be wired
through a light switch.
Wiring Regulations
All wiring must comply with Building Regulations and the current IET Wiring
Regulations (BS7671 in the UK) or equivalent standards for other countries.
The final installation should be examined and tested by a qualified
electrician.
The fuse in the pattress box (SELV Variants) may need to be changed if the
product is installed outside of the UK.

About the Product
Function
The EnviroVent Cyclone 8 has been developed to improve indoor air quality,
reduce humidity levels in kitchens and bathrooms and resolve condensation and
mould problems. It is designed to operate continuously for up to 8 years
without a major service.
Datalogger
The Cyclone 8 includes a datalogger as standard which is able to provide the
following:
· The total running time of the fan
· The time the fan has spent in each of the two speeds (trickle and boost).
· The time the fan has spent in periods of increased humidity.
· The energy usage of the fan.
This data can be provided for 30 days and 12 months (with the exception of the
total running time). If required, all data with the exception of the total run
time is able to be reset. For further information on this, please call
EnviroVent on 01423 810 810.
Variable Speed Control
As standard, the Cyclone 8 includes the option for variable speed control of
the lower trickle speed for both larger properties and to ensure building
regulation compliance. This can be accessed via the datalogging keypad under
the front cover of the fan and has 25 increments from the factory set point up
to 100% airflow.
AFTER INSTALLATION THE END USER SHOULD
DO NOT
KEEP THIS GUIDE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE THROW AWAY 5
Humidity Tracking
As standard, the unit is fitted with Intellitrac® Technology to sense the
relative humidity in the room. Once above the setpoint, the fan speed will
increase as humidity levels rise and decrease as humidity levels fall. This
intelligent function reduces energy costs, motor wear, and ensures a long life
for the product.
Pullcord
If your Cyclone 8 fan includes a pullcord, it can be used to engage the
maximum extraction rate for odour control. Pull down on the cord to increase
the unit to the maximum extraction rate. Pull down again to decrease the unit
back to the low extraction rate.
Cartridge Replacement
If necessary, the central cartridge can be exchanged for a replacement. The
removed cartridge can be returned to EnviroVent for recycling. This allows the
front cover, rear carcass and duct to remain intact throughout the life of the
property, eliminating the wasteful disposal of non-biodegradable material to
landfill sites.

Wireless Remote Control
When the button on the remote control is pressed, the unit will extract at the
maximum extraction rate for up to 15 minutes then return to the low extraction
rate. The high extraction rate can be stopped early if required, by pressing
the button on the remote control within the 15 minutes. (Remote control units
do not include a pullcord).
Wired Remote Switch
On these units, a wired boost switch may be connected up to 3 metres away from
the unit. (This must be a volt free contact do not wire the cable or switch
into the Mains). When the remote switch is activated, the unit will operate at
the maximum extraction rate. It will remain at this rate until the switch is
deactivated.
To pair additional remote-control switches:
1. Turn the unit off at the isolation point.
2. Restore power; for 20 seconds from restart the unit will be in pairing
mode.
3. Press the remote button once within the 20 seconds and the control will
pair to the unit.
4. Successful pairing is indicated by a green light on the control.
Batteries
When the battery (CR2032 type) requires changing, unscrew the switch front
cover. The battery is located on the back of the cover. The switch will remain
paired with the unit after battery replacement. Ensure the new battery is
inserted with correct polarity, and the removed battery is safely disposed of.
