HOME Ventilation Guide other. A continuously running HRV or ERV provides a steady supply of fresh air to the home, while recovering a portion of the energy normally lost through non-heat-recovery ventilation. In the winter, heat from the stale exhaust air is captured by the heat recovery core and transferred to the cold incoming air. In the summer, the outgoing, airconditioned exhaust air cools the incoming air. HRVs and ERVs filter the fresh outside supply air, minimizing the entry of pollen, dust and insects into the home, and are intended to operate year-round. Models suitable for extremely cold climates are equipped with automatic defrost mechanisms, allowing continuous operation throughout the winter. HRVs and ERVs are available as stand-alone units with independent ductwork, or they may be connected to existing forced-air heating and cooling systems. Properly selected, installed, operated and maintained, an HRV and ERV will: • Exhaust indoor pollutants and help to maintain good indoor air quality. • Provide a continuous supply of fresh, filtered and tempered outdoor air throughout the home. • Recover heat from the exhaust air in winter. • Control excess indoor humidity when outdoor humidity levels are lower. • Cool incoming air in summer when the house is air-conditioned. • Provide an energy-efficient means for reducing acute indoor air-pollutant problems such as radon, formaldehyde, excess moisture or odors. ERVs can reduce the moisture content of the fresh incoming air, reducing the load on the air-conditioning system. What’s in your attic?
