This chapter describes the maintenance of the Vallox ventilation unit.
Warning
The safety switch automatically turns off the power when the upper door of the Vallox ventilation unit is opened. Always disconnect the Vallox ventilation unit from the mains before starting maintenance.
Warning
If water is used to clean any part of the ventilation unit, ensure that it is kept out of the electrical system at all times.
Note
There are two unit models, left- (L) and right-handed (R). The figures in the following sections show the right-handed model.
In the right handed version, outdoor air blows into the unit from the right side of the centre line as shown in the instructions. In the left handed version, outdoor air blows into the unit from the left side. Also the position of the filters, bypass flap, and heating radiator is mirrored in the left-handed model.
The following table shows the recommended maintenance intervals for the Vallox ventilation unit.
