Outdoor Heat Exchanger Air Intake
The plenum can be used to prevent negative air pressure in the ceiling space when using the exhaust air-flange and duct to remove exhaust from the ceiling space. Simply attach a 10-in (CM12) or 14-in (CM25) diameter duct to the air plenum to bring in air from outside of the ceiling space (duct not included).
