MOUNTING ON THE CEILING

Vallox 101 MV can be equipped with an optional ceiling mount plate. 

To attach the ceiling mounting plate:

•  On rafter frames or other frame structure with M8 thread bars so 

that they withstand the weight of the unit.

•  Ensure that the installation plate is horizontally level, as this 

determines the position of the unit.

•  The top edge of the white covering strip of the ceiling mounting 

plate can be installed against the ceiling. Alternatively, a 

concealed mounting method can be used, in which case the 

ceiling can be 30 mm below the top of the white covering strip. 

Insulate the ducts against condensation also between the unit and 

the ceiling mounting plate.

Mounting the ceiling mounting plate

1.  Fasten the thread bars on the rafter frames or other frame 

structure, and screw the nuts (E) onto the bars.

2.  Lift the ceiling mounting plate in place.

3.  Push a rubber damper (F) and a washer (G) to each thread bar.

4.  Adjust the nuts so that the ceiling mounting plate is level.

5.  Shorten the lower ends of the thread bars so that they are no 

more than 5 mm below the nuts. 

Installing the ventilation unit to the ceiling 

mounting plate

1.  Ensure that the insulation washers (B) delivered with the ceiling 

mounting plate (A) are in place.

2.  Remove the door of the unit.

3.  Lift the ventilation unit close to the ceiling mounting plate and 

feed the connection cables and connection box through the hole 

in the ceiling mounting plate.  

NOTE

Remember to make a service door in the ceiling so that the cables 

and the connection box can be accessed. The distance between 

the service door and the ceiling mounting plate must be around 

500 mm. 

4.  Lift the ventilation unit against the ceiling mounting plate so that 

it locks in place. To ensure that the unit is firmly locked in place, 

check that the locking devices (C) at the bottom corners of the 

ceiling mounting plate have returned to the same level as the 

white covering strip of the ceiling mounting plate.
