In colder climates an HRV is a proper choice. The HRV keeps the home supplied with a steady flow of fresh outdoor air.
As stale, warm air is expelled, the heat recovery core warms the incoming fresh, colder air before it is distributed throughout the home.
The result is a constant supply of fresh air, no unpleasant drafts and greater home comfort. In addition to heat recovery and improved air quality, the HRV provides necessary ventilation while controlling excess humidity.
Ventilation in your home,
a key to a healthy home.
Ventilation is a necessity. According to experts, whole-house ventilation and filtration effectively eliminate airborne pollutants and excess moisture, thereby protecting the health of your family and the structure of your home.
A balanced mechanical ventilation system with heat or energy recovery ventilation is an ideal way to meet both National Building Code of Canada and the requirements of many energy efficiency programs.
