Before you start

Find the best place - A south, south east or south west facing wall, with minimum shade is ideal. Be aware of shadows from trees or fences. The outside siting must correspond with the optimal place inside the house.

Additional Tools Needed:

• Electric drill with core cutter
• Screw driver
• Spirit level

Step 1 - Drill or breakout a hole for the warm air intake

When you have found the best place to install your Solarventi mark the spot for the hole. Depending on the model the hole needs to be:

• 115 - 120mm diameter for SV2, SV3
• 135 - 140mm diameter for SV7, SV9, SV14, SV30

Pictured - SolarWarmAir installers using a diamond core cutter to make the ventilation hole - using precision tools allows SolarWarmAir to install the SolarVenti units efficiently and professionally minimizing, and in most cases removing, the need for additional repairs to existing surfaces.

Step 2 - Fit the brackets and flexi tube

Fix the wall brackets, carefully measuring using the hole as a reference point, put the flexi-tube through the hole and fix it to the frame inside the house. Push the frame into the hole and fix it to the wall.

Pictured - brackets for an SV9 and flexi-tube fitted ready for final mounting of the SolarVenti panel.

Step 3 - Finally fit the panel, regulator and inlet valve.

Rest the panel on the bottom brackets and connect the flexi-tube, secure the panel at the top by turning the bolts into the groove in the panel frame, it’s as easy as that. On the inside, the white inlet valve can be pressed into the frame. Turn clockwise to fix. Fit and connect the control unit.

The regulator control unit where fitted is used for:

1. Switching the Ventilator fan off
2. Setting the maximum speed of the fan
3. Setting the thermostat to regulate the fan
4. Starting the cooling fan (where fitted)
5. Switching the pump off on hybrid systems
   (May alternatively be used for a small extraction fan 1,8 Watt)
