Condensing water

During the heating season, moisture in extract air condenses into water. Condensation can be heavy in new buildings. It is important that the condensing water is drained from the unit without hindrance.

Note:

There may be a little bit of condensing water in the unit’s bottom pool. This is perfectly normal and does not call for action.

While carrying out maintenance, make sure that the condensing water blocks in the bottom pool are not clogged and that they are not leaking. You can do this in autumn before the start of the heating season, for example. To check that there are no blockages or leaks, pour water into the pool. Unblock and clean if necessary.

Warning:

Water must at all times be kept out of the electrical system.

Removal of condensing water in the summer

In certain, quite rare, indoor and outdoor air conditions, condensing water may accumulate at the bottom pool of the unit if the cold recovery has been activated (switched on by default). This may happen, for example, if it is particularly hot and humid outside and noticeably cooler inside.

If excess water accumulates at the bottom, remove the orange plug (T) from the condensing water outlet.
