CLEANING THE ENERGY RECOVERY WHEEL
If the wheel appears excessively dirty, it should be cleaned to ensure maximum operating efficiency. Only
excessive buildup of foreign material needs to be removed. DISCOLORATION AND STAINING OF ENERGY
RECOVERY WHEEL DOES NOT AFFECT ITS PERFORMANCE.
Thoroughly spray wheel matrix with household cleaner such as Fantastic
®
or equivalent. Gently rinse with
warm water and using a soft brush remove any heavier accumulation. A detergent/water solution can also be
used. Avoid aggressive organic solvents, such as acetone. The energy recovery wheel segments can be soaked
in the above solution overnight for stubborn dirt or accumulation.
After cleaning is complete, shake the excess water from the wheel or segments. Dry wheel or segments
before placing them back into the cassette. Place wheel or segments back into cassette by reversing removal
procedures.
** DO NOT CLEAN ENERGY RECOVERY WHEEL SEGMENTS WITH WATER IN EXCESS OF 140ºF
** DO NOT DRY ENERGY RECOVERY WHEEL SEGMENTS IN AIR IN EXCESS OF 140ºF.
** THE USE OF A PRESSURE WASHER TO CLEAN SEGMENTS IS NOT RECOMMENDED. DAMAGE COULD
RESULT.
Energy Recovery Wheel Belt
Energy Recovery Wheel Bearings
Inspect belts each time filters are replaced. Belts that
look chewed up or are leaving belt dust near the motor
pulley may indicate a problem with the wheel. Be sure to
inspect wheel for smooth and unrestricted rotation. If a
belt requires replacement, contact the local Greenheck
representative. Instructions for replacement will ship with
the new belt.
Wheel Belt & Pulley
In the unlikely event that a wheel bearing fails, access is
available through the outdoor air filter door and through
a removable plate in the divider in the unit (accessed
through the exhaust air filter door). Contact the local
Greenheck representative for detailed instructions on how
to replace the bearing.
