1. INTRODUCTION
The Q-Vent HR160/260 system provides whole house mechanical ventilation to living areas and
bedrooms. The heat from the Q-Vent HR160/260 is recovered from stale contaminated air drawn
from bathrooms and utility rooms in conjunction with stale air from the kitchen. The Q-Vent
HR160/260 uses a high performance heat exchanger that recovers heat and uses it to temper
the incoming fresh air.
This type of system complies with Approved Document F of the Building Regulations F1 Means
of Ventilation.
Note: Installation of the Q-Vent HR160/260 will have been commissioned and balanced by a
competent person.
