The ventilation timer is an electronic timer that 
displays the current time. This timer has a battery 
backup, so it will not require resetting after a power 
outage. Following a prolonged power outage the 
display of the timer will flash on and off indicating a 
power outage has occurred. The one-minute time 
increments of the ventilation timer allow you to 
program the ventilation of your home to fit your 
schedule. 
 
The ventilation timer has six programs with each 
program having one “on” and one “off” event. A 
program allows the user to turn the ventilation on at a 
certain day and time, then it allows them to turn the 
ventilation off at a certain day and time. Each of these 
programs can be repeated daily or weekly or during a 
specified block of days. All six of the programs operate 
independently of each other. 
 
If the timer fails to operate or operates erratically, 
check that the control panel receives 24Vac from the 
DHV-150H. If 24Vac is present at the control panel, 
reset the timer by pressing the reset button at the 
bottom center of the timer face. The reset button is the 
small recessed button with an R beneath it located 
below the 1…7 and h buttons. Press the reset button 
in until the display clears. Release the reset button. 
The display will reappear as 00:00. Resetting the timer 
will clear the time and all program settings. After 
resetting the timer follow the instructions below to set 
the correct time and ventilation programs. 
 
The following instructions explain how to set the 
ventilation timer. First, set the correct time on the 
timer by sliding the switch in the upper right hand 
corner of the timer to the clock symbol 
 and pressing 
the 1…7 (DAY), h (HOUR), and m (MINUTE) buttons. 
Remember that this timer operates on a 24-hour 
(military time) clock. 
 
Next, set the ventilation time schedule. Slide the 
switch in the upper right hand corner to the program 
symbol  
P
. “ON” will appear to the right of the time and 
the number “1” will appear in the lower right hand 
corner of the display. The “1” and “ON” signify the turn 
on time for the first program. Press the 1…7 button to 
choose the days of the week for this program. You can 
choose Mon.-Sun, Mon.-Fri., Sat-Sun, or any single 
day of the week. The days chosen are shown along the 
top of the display on the ventilation timer. Next press 
the h button to set the hour for the start of the 
ventilation period. Remember that this timer operates 
on a 24-hour clock. Then press the m button to set the 
minutes past the hour to start the ventilation. Now, with 
the ventilation start time set; press the I/O button. The 
word “OFF” should appear to the right of the time and 
the number “1” should remain in the lower right hand 
corner of the display. The “1” and “OFF” signify the 
turn off time for the first program. Set the turn off time 
using the 1…7h, and m buttons in the same way as 
described above and continue on to the second 
through sixth programs. When setting the ventilation 
programs, you can return to the current time display by 
sliding the switch in the upper right corner of the timer 
to RUN. The slide switch in the upper right must be set 
to RUN for the timer to operate with the scheduled 
programs. 
 
The slide switch in the upper left of the timer is used to 
choose between automatic and manual operation of 
the timer relay. When the slide switch in the upper left 
of the timer is set to AUTO mode, the central 
conditioning unit will ventilate when the scheduled 
programs call for ventilation. When the slide switch in 
the upper left of the timer is set to manual (set to hand 
symbol on the right), the operation of the timer is 
controlled by the I/O button only. Pressing the I/O 
button will switch the ventilation timer between ON 
(detent) and OFF (detent). As you press the I/O button, 
“ON” or “OFF” will be displayed to the right of the time. 
The “ON” or “OFF” to the right of the time will indicate 
if the ventilation timer is on or off. The I/O button will 
manually override scheduled programs if the timer is 
in AUTO mode. 
 
3.6 High Efficiency Air filter
 
 
An optional high efficiency air filter is available for the 
DHV-150H. ASHRAE Dust Spot Test Method 52-76 
rates this filter 90-95% efficient. This filter is much 
more efficient than the standard air filter and is able to 
catch much smaller particles that can aggravate 
allergies. 
 
The high efficiency air filter is 4 inches thick and 
should be installed in the filter enclosure directly 
behind the standard air filter (See Figure 7). The 
standard air filter will act as a prefilter for the high 
efficiency air filter and will prolong the life of the high 
efficiency air filter. 
 
3.7 Low Pressure Control 
 
If the low side refrigerant pressure drops to 15 PSIG, 
the low-pressure control opens and shuts off the 
compressor and fan. It is an automatically reset control 
that will close when the pressure rises to 35 PSIG. Its 
primary function is to prevent damage to the 
compressor if a leak develops in the refrigeration 
system. It may also open if the unit is A) installed in a 
cool area (below 50 F) or B) installed where it is below 
40 F and then started. Under these conditions, the unit 
will restart within several minutes. Until the unit warms 
up, it may repeat the cycle several times.
