1.0 Functions of your HRV
Your Heat Recovery Ventilator eliminates the problems of excessive humidi-
ty by exhausting stale and humid air to the outside and by drawing in fresh
air. The unit offers superior air quality and fresh air sensation, an important fac-
tor to overall comfort, by eliminating the accumulation of pollutants and
humidity.
The unit also comes equipped with a heat recovery core which reduces
ventilating costs in winter.
The Heat Recovery Ventilator is a Ventilation system which carries out three
main operations:
The unit exhausts stale and humid air from the house and replaces it with
fresh air from the outside.
1.1 Air Exchange
1.2 Heat Recovery
During winter, the unit recovers the heat contained in the stale air before it is
exhausted, and transfers it to the fresh air drawn from the outside (reverse
process in summer).
