Ap pli ca tion
These Energy Recovery Ventilators (
ERV)
are used in a down discharge manner equipped
with field provided
balancing damper assembly
through the roof. A roof curb must be provided to Rooftop Systems specifications. These
wheels conserve energy by mixing warmer air with cooler air in the following manner:
Re cov ery Wheel Mode
The Recovery Wheel mode is accomplished by two blowers providing continuous exhaust of stale indoor air and
replacement by equal amount of outdoor air. Energy recovery is achieved by slowly rotating the energy recovery wheel
within the cassette frame work. In winter, the ERV adsorbs heat and moisture from the exhaust air stream during one half
of a complete rotation and gives them back to the cold, drier intake air supply during the other half rotation. In summer, the
process is automatically reversed. Heat and moisture are absorbed from incoming fresh air supply and transferred to the
exhaust air stream. This process allows outdoor air ventilation rates to be increased by factors of three or more without
additional energy penalty or increase in size of heating or air conditioning systems.
