Fantech SHR 1504 Operation Manual - Optional Remote Controls
OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROLS
5
RTS2 - The 20-minute remote timer is typically installed in areas where
contaminated such as moisture and odors, are produced. Simply push the
button and the HRV will activate to high speed for 20 minutes. Up to 5
electronic timers can be installed throughout the building at a distance of up to
500 feet (152 meters) from the HRV.
MDEH2 - The wall-mounted MDEH2 offers the same features of the MDEH1 plus
additional off/on control for the HRV. Dial illuminates when in override mode.
RTS3 - The RTS3 is designed to provide an intermittent boost to the Heat recovery
ventilator. Pressing the fan control button will energize the HRV system into high
speed from a low or standby mode. The ventilator can be set to continue on high for
20, 40, or 60 minutes by pressing the control button one, two or three times,
respectively. Pressing the button a fourth time will cancel the timing function.
EDF1 - The EDF1 is designed to provide 3 modes of operation to the Heat recovery
ventilator. Pressing the “Push” button once initiates the unit to run at a continuous
low speed of operation (green). Pressing the button twice allows the ventilator to
run for 20 minutes and then turns off for 40 minutes (yellow). Touch the button a
third time and the system will run continuously on high (red). The ventilation system
will stay on the last function selected until it is changed.
MDEH1 - The wall mount dehumidistat monitors the humidity level in the area
it is installed. When the humidity level rises above the desired set-point, the
HRV will activate to high speed/override mode. Once the humidity level returns
to desired condition, the unit will return to the normal mode.
To avoid window condensation:
• It is not necessary to
change the humidity control
every day. Monitor the
average weekly
temperature or experiment
with various settings until
you find a level that is
comfortable for you. Adjust
the control when needed.
PRACTICAL
TIPS
* All controls are low voltage. 18 to 24
gauge wire is recommended.
NOTE:
A dehumidistat is ideal for
use in energy efficient
houses where indoor
humidity (during the
heating season) is higher
than outdoor levels. High
humidity is a major cause
of structure damage and
IAQ problems such as mold
and mildew.

Ventilation Modes
NOTE:
When an Intellitek control
is installed, the rocker
switch located on the right
hand side of the HRV will
be automatically
deactivated giving the user
complete control from
wherever he/she wishes to
mount the control pad.
NOTE:
The override speed cannot
be set at a fan speed lower
or equal to the normal
operating fan speed. For
example, if the unit is
normally operating at a
medium fan speed, the
override fan speed will be
automatically set to high.
NOTE:
EDF5 model, changing the
override speed will change
default override speed for
other external controls.
EXAMPLES:
If, on the EDF5 control, you
have set the override
control at medium, and
you start an external
remote control (i.e. RTS2),
the unit will run at medium
speed for 20 min.
