Breathe Easier with ERVs
ERV
Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) provide a balanced way to bring fresh outdoor air into your home while conserving energy.
ERVs transfer heat and humidity between incoming and outgoing air, keeping your indoor environment comfortable without overworking your HVAC system.
Why Choose an ERV?
- Enhanced Indoor Air Quality: ERVs continuously ventilate, removing pollutants, allergens, and stale air.
- Energy Savings: By transferring heat from outgoing air to incoming air, ERVs reduce heating and cooling loads, saving energy.
- Humidity Control: Helps maintain balanced humidity levels, making your home comfortable and reducing the risk of mold and mildew.
- Ideal for Tight, Energy-Efficient Homes: ERVs are especially beneficial in well-sealed, insulated homes where natural ventilation is limited.
Optimal Airflow and Energy Efficiency
Improved Indoor Air Quality
An ERV works by drawing in fresh outdoor air while expelling the stale, polluted indoor air.
As air passes through the system, the two airstreams exchange heat and moisture, so the incoming air is pre-conditioned to match the indoor environment.
In winter, it transfers heat from the outgoing air to warm the cold incoming air.
In summer, it cools the incoming air by transferring heat from it to the outgoing air.
The result is a balanced, comfortable indoor climate with minimal energy loss.
Humidity Control
An ERV helps to regulate indoor humidity levels, which can be a major factor in comfort and health. It reduces excess moisture in the air during humid months and helps prevent the dryness that can occur in the winter, creating a more pleasant environment year-round.
Comfort Year-Round
Whether it’s a hot summer day or a chilly winter evening, ERVs help maintain consistent temperatures by transferring heat, so you don’t have to worry about uncomfortable drafts or temperature swings.
