How does an Energy Recovery Ventilator improve the comfort of your home?

Ventilation through open windows is not always a good idea, during the colder months in particular, when you are trying to retain warm air in your house. The use of a energy efficient ventilation system with energy recovery will help to maintain a fresh ambiance and help to recover up to 90% of the warmth created inside.

 

Energy recovery ventilation reduces heating and cooling costs whilst improving indoor air quality.

 

Higher airtightness of residential structures improves energy efficiency but this comes at a cost to the cycling of fresh air through the house. Ventilation is necessary for improving indoor air quality and the protection of building structures from fungal growth. A ventilation system helps to reduce the impact of humidity and the accumulation of pollutants by exchanging inside air with fresh air from outside.

 

Energy recovery ventilation (ERV) is the exchange the energy contained in normally exhausted building or space air and using it to pre-treat incoming outdoor ventilation air in home air management systems. During the warmer seasons, the system pre-cools and dehumidifies while humidifying and pre-heating in the cooler months.

 

 

An energy recovery ventilator transfers both temperature and moisture of incoming fresh air. In comparison, heat recovery ventilators (HRV) can only transfer heat but not moisture of outgoing household air to incoming fresh air that is replacing it.

 

Why you should install Energy Recovery Ventilation (ERV)

 

•   Exhausts damp, foul air and odours from the building, improving the air quality

•   Drier air is easier to heat than moist air, the energy demand is similar to a lightbulb

•   A balanced ventilation system leads to a healthier environment by working to expel indoor humidity that can promote the build-up of mould and mildew

•   Ventilates with fresh, warmed air creating a drier environment making your home easier to heat

•   Recovers up to 90% of energy from outgoing air to incoming fresh air – maximising any wasted heat from your home
