What’s All The Talk About Indoor Air Quality? You’ve heard it on TV and read about it in magazines. The news is everywhere ... the air inside your home can be up to five times more polluted than the air outside.
Did You Know? Everyday Activities add to Indoor Air Pollution Studies have found that simple things like mopping the kitchen floor, taking a shower, doing the laundry or just breathing can generate enough moisture in your home to raise the relative humidity to an unhealthy level. Increased humidity and moisture inside your home can lead to severe structural damage that you can’t see until it’s too late.
What Are HRVs and ERVs? To understand these products and their functions, here are a few things to remember. EXHAUST AIR FROM AIR EXHAUST FROM INSIDE INSIDE FRESH AIR FROM FRESH AIR FROM OUTSIDE OUTSIDE Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRVs) are recommended for colder areas of the country that have longer heating seasons as well as drier desert areas of the South. Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) are designed for warmer, humid climates with longer cooling seasons.
Selecting the Right Unit Installation Options HRVs and ERVs can be installed as stand-alone systems that use independent ductwork or they can be connected to the existing duct of your forced air heating or cooling system. Two simple questions to help you choose the ideal unit for your home or building. 1. In what climate zone do you live? Climate conditions will determine whether you need a Heat Recovery Ventilator or an Energy Recovery Ventilator.
