5. Instrucciones de funcionamiento

The ALDES Easyhome Hygro Compact Classic is a hygro-adjustable single flow VMC system, meaning its operation is largely automatic based on humidity levels.

5.1. Operación automática

• Once powered on, the VMC unit will continuously operate at a low speed to ensure basic air renewal.
• The hygro-adjustable exhaust vents in wet rooms will automatically open wider as humidity levels increase (e.g., during a shower or cooking), increasing the extraction rate.
• When humidity levels decrease, the vents will gradually close, reducing the extraction rate to save energy.

Some models may include a manual boost function, typically activated by a switch in the kitchen or bathroom. Activating this function will temporarily increase the VMC's extraction rate to quickly remove odors or high humidity.
