The model 340AAV can be installed in any of 4 positions including horizontally in attics or crawlspaces, free- ing space formerly used as a utility or furnace room. Except for the 140 size, all sizes of the model 340AAV can be installed in a manufactured (mobile) home when the optional kit is used. With the exception of the 180 size, all sizes can be installed with 2-pipe or 1-pipe venting.

The 140 size can be insalled only as a 2-pipe system. Sidewall or through-the-roof venting options and the use of PVC pipe eliminate the need for dedicated chimneys or chaseways to facilitate furnace venting. Time-saving installation features yield a very cost effective way to provide new home buyers with a high-effi- ciency and high-quality home comfort system. FEATURES 3-Pass Primary Heat Exchangers —This design accelerates heat transfer and extracts heat that conventional heat exchang- ers waste up the flue. The primary heat exchanger is made of aluminized steel for corrosion resistance. Combustion Air and Ventilation —The 340AAV advanced design allows Schedule 40PVC, PVC-DWV, SDR-21 PVC, SDR-26 PVC (not approved in Canada), ABS-DWV, or ABS- F628 Schedule 40 pipe to bring outdoor air into the furnace for combustion.

The extracted heat lowers the temperature of the combustion products to a point (typically below 115°F) that any of the approved types of pipe can also be used for venting combustion products outside the structure. The combustion-air and vent pipes can terminate through a side wall or through the roof when using 1 of our approved vent termination kits. Flow-Through Secondary Heat Exchangers —Each cell is laminated with our patented Everlastic TM polypropylene for greater resistance to corrosion. This breakthrough in heating technology helps extend the life of the furnace for years of dependable performance.

The heat exchanger is positioned in the furnace to extract additional heat from the combustion products regardless of furnace orientation. Perfect Light™ Igniter —Bryant’s unique SiN igniter is not only physically robust but it is also electrically robust. It is capable of running at line voltage and does not require complex voltage regulators as do other brands. This unique feature further enhances the reliability of 340AAV gas furnace and continues Bryant’s tradition of technology leadership and innovation in providing a reliable and durable product.

First, some context: the ERV was installed about a week ago in my home in Ottawa, Canada (temperature range averages from +35C to -35C in a given year. The HVAC dealer installed a KVBCN0101BST wall control, which I understand is a Bryant HRV controller, to control the Bryant ERV system.

I am pleased with the installation, save the wall control – which I do not understand. I am also liking the fact that the humidity in the home is not decreasing quickly, even on continuous ventilation. I am concerned that the installed controller can integrate with the ERV. Various manuals and brochures published to the Bryant Web site explain that this control, as an HRV controller, should function with the ERV. Is this true? Assuming the KVBCN0101BST controller can work with the ERV, I am really confused as to how it works – as the various manuals contradict one another. For example, how intermittent works with the KVBCN0101BST seems to be different than described in the brochures associated with the ERV.

Same with the installation instructions for the ERV. So, at the end of the day – I want to know how the controls should be used in my situation. For example, is the low exchange meant to be used in winter, with the intermittent in summer? Or, can both setting operate in both summer (humid) and winter (dry) conditions? Is there then a difference in how the humidity setting is applied in this instance? Or, in cold weather (winter, below 0C), is the humidity setting to be set on the desired house setting (e.g. I want my house to be 35% humidity), or is it based on the outdoor temperature (e.g.20C, thus it should be set at 30%)?

An in summer, would it be the same (have house at 45% humidity; or the temperature is 25)? I tried contacting Bryant directly, and was told that I had to talk to various Bryant dealers as they could not provide the necessary customer service support. Any insights would be appreciated. Oh, I should add: the changes to the controller do the following: - on continuous mode - it is on all the time, with a decrease in the selected humidity forcing the system into high speed - on intermittant mode - the system is off all the time, unless humidity level is decreased (and then it stays on constantly (at least the light is always lit), presumably at low speed. I would have expected that within an hour, that it would have turned on for 20 min, then turned off for 40 min etc. (or something similar, but this is not appear to be the case).

The idea is get a fresh air change into your home in 4-5 hours when the home is occupied. During cold windy weather, your home may get enough fresh air without operating the ERV.

Operating your clothes drier and kitchen hood also makes your home breathe. During warm calm weather, your home breathes very little and needs mechanical fresh air the most. During cold weather with low outdoor dew points, moisture levels in the home indicate the amount of fresh dry air that is passing through the home.

Four occupants in a 2,500 sqft. Are adding 2 lbs. Of moisture an hour with an fresh air change in 4-5 hours may have a 35%RH humidity typical outdoor dew points. This leads to the idea of using the%RH levels to control the ERV.

Low indoor%RH indicates plenty of fresh air or no occupancy. During cold weather, this may be the best way to control the ERV. During warm calm weather, you need to ventilate when occupied and windows closed. All of these things will raise the indoor humidity.

So modrate/warm season ventilation should be controlled by occupancy. A timer on the outlet of ERV with an occupancy schedule may be a better choice. An additional point is that a properly ventilated occupied home in a green grass climate needs a good whole house 70-90 pint dehumidifier to maintain. I am still not sure it is intuitive.

I had expected the intermittant function to run hourly, for example 20 minutes per hour - to allow fresh air. In other words, I had expected it to function by by both humidity and hourly refresh rates (unfortunately it is hard to know these things as the controllers are not really the focus during discussions/or in the litterature). So, your suggestion for a time-based / occupancy-based timer sounds intriguing. I have been told however, that there are no controllers that are compatible with the Bryan ERV (ERVBBLHA1200) other than the controllers offered by Bryant. Anyone know if this is true?

Anyone had any experience with this? It there are some that are compatable, which ones? And, would they take advantage of the two-speed nature of the Bryant ERV (otherwise, I should have bought a one-speed ERV). Any suggestions appreciated. Quick Navigation.
