Merry Christmas first of all.
Now my question:
When replacing the external filters of our central ventilation system with heat recovery for the first time, I unfortunately noticed that the intake and exhaust openings are switched, meaning the filter is actively filtering the exhaust air while the supply air enters the system unfiltered. Can I request a cleaning of the system from the general contractor in addition to the defect correction (they will only replace the "end connectors")? (The system has been running for 6 months now, and in the meantime, roadworks were carried out nearby, so there was definitely a lot of dust in the air.)

Still, it’s obviously a problem if these things get mixed up. Basically, you’ve been working without a filter for 6 months. Just try telling the manufacturer what they say about that in terms of warranty, etc.
