Honeywell Energy Recovery Ventilators

Honeywell Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERV) and Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRV) provide fresh replacement air while recovering much of the exhausted air's sensible heat (up to 70%), as well as some of the latent heat, by transferring moisture from one air Energy Recovery Ventilation stream to the other. The system draws fresh outdoor air through the ventilator for distribution throughout the house. Stale air is exhausted outside through the ventilator. Heat is transferred from one air stream to the other as the air passes through the opposite sides of the heat transfer core. ERV systems provide the added benefit of reducing the amount of humidity from the incoming air making ERVs a great choice for humid southern climates. HRV and ERV models also offer core defrost as an option for colder climates.

Efficient air exchange. Recovers up to 80% of heating and cooling energy.
Low energy usage. Uses about the same amount of energy as a 100 watt lightbulb

Honeywell offers several solutions for bringing fresh air into your home while helping you maintain energy efficiency. Ask your heating and cooling professional whether an Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) or Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) would be right for you. Both have the capability to bring fresh air into the entire home in an energy-efficient and cost-effective way, since they can recover up to 80% of the heating and cooling energy from the air exchanged in the ventilation system.

Todays homes are built tight for energy efficiency, but that same tightness also greatly restricts the intake of fresh air and can trap dust, allergens and more. The average person spends 90% of his or her time indoors, breathing that stale air.
