Description

Most apartments and condos have no mechanical room, so ventilation equipment has to fit above a false ceiling. The Fantech FIT 120E-M Low Profile Mirrored 127 CFM Energy Recovery Ventilator line works within that space, and its mirrored layout suits flipped floor plans. Its recovery core moves heat and moisture from outgoing stale air into incoming fresh air, so you bring in outdoor air without paying to fully recondition it.

Key Features and Benefits of the Fantech FIT 120E-M Low Profile Mirrored 127 CFM Energy Recovery Ventilator

  • Energy Recovery Core: A polymer membrane core transfers heat and water vapor between airstreams, and because it is freeze-tolerant and water-washable, you can rinse it clean during routine maintenance.
  • Variable Airflow Control: Electronic controls set 40-127 CFM at 0.4 inches of water gauge, the pressure the fan works against, adjustable at the electrical box or wall control.
  • Low-Profile Fit: A 10-inch installed depth and a drain-free design let you mount the ventilator on a ceiling or wall without running a condensate line.
  • Automatic Frost Prevention: When outdoor air reaches 14 degrees F or lower, the supply blower pauses and the exhaust blower runs on high, then normal operation resumes.
  • Sealed Duct Connections: Metal collars with rubber gaskets on the 5-inch side ports seal tightly, helping you limit air leaks where the ventilator joins existing ductwork.
  • Included Filters: The ventilator ships with 2 washable, UL900-certified electrostatic panel filters plus a MERV 3 filter to capture airborne impurities before air reaches your rooms.
  • Electrical Requirements: The ventilator runs on 110-120 volts, drawing 120 watts and a maximum of 1.4 amps, so you can confirm circuit needs before installation.
  • CSA and HVI: The ventilator carries both CSA and HVI certifications, so you can confirm it meets the listings your project requires.
  • Compact Dimensions: Measures 24.6 x 10 x 23.2-Inches (L x W x H) with depth up to 25.1 inches across configurations, weighs 32.6 to 33.5 pounds, so plan ceiling clearance.

Choose Your Power and Damper Configuration

You can set up the FIT 120E-M Series as a Plug-In, Hardwired, Plug-In with Shut-Off Damper, or Hardwired with Shut-Off Damper model.

  • Plug-In Model FIT 120E-M: This model connects through a 3-foot power cord and has no damper, which gives you the simplest setup when an outlet is close to the installation.
  • Hardwired Model FIT 120E-M-HC: This model connects directly to your building wiring instead of using a cord and has no damper, suiting projects that call for a permanent electrical connection.
  • Plug-In with Shut-Off Damper Model FIT 120E-D-M: Building on the plug-in model, this version keeps the 3-foot power cord and adds an integrated mechanical shut-off damper that stops outside air from drawing back through the supply duct during standby or defrost.
  • Hardwired with Shut-Off Damper Model FIT 120E-D-M-HC: Building on the hardwired model, this version adds the same integrated mechanical shut-off damper, giving you a permanent electrical connection plus protection from outdoor air entering during standby or defrost.

Sylvane's Expert Take

If you're outfitting a condo or apartment with mirrored floor plans and no mechanical room, this low-profile ERV is built to fit the tight space above a false ceiling. It suits projects where outdoor air can drop to 14 degrees F or lower, since the frost prevention sequence engages at that point.

The damper is the decision that matters most. Choose a damper model to keep outside air from being drawn back through the supply duct during standby or defrost, then let your electrical plan decide between plug-in and hardwired.
