Installing Drain Line
Through normal operation and during its defrost mode, the HRV may produce some condensation.
This water should flow into a nearby drain, or be taken away by a condensate pump. The HRV and
all condensate lines must be installed in a space where the temperature is maintained above the
freezing point. A “P” trap should be made in the drain line. This will prevent odors from being
drawn back up into the unit.
