• How often should I replace the filters in my Nilan ventilation unit?

  The factory setting recommends changing filters every 90 days, though this depends on your location. Standard filters (G4) might need more frequent replacement, while larger F7 pollen filters can sometimes be replaced less frequently.

• Why is a water trap with a ball recommended for Nilan units?

  A ball water trap ensures that the trap does not completely dry out during the summer. If a standard trap dries out, air can be sucked in, preventing condensate from draining and potentially causing water damage.

• Where can I find the serial number on my Nilan unit?

  The nameplate containing the serial number (SN) is typically located on the ventilation unit (often inside at the bottom right). Have this ready when contacting Nilan for support.

• What does a flashing yellow lamp on the Nilan Comfort control panel mean?

  A flashing yellow lamp typically indicates an alarm, such as a filter replacement reminder. Press the UP arrow on the control panel to view the alarm details and reset it after resolving the issue.

• Can I clean the counterflow heat exchanger in my Nilan unit?

  Yes. While it usually does not need annual cleaning, if it appears dirty, you can carefully remove it and wash it in the shower with lukewarm water. Allow it to drip dry completely before remounting.
