Heat Recovery Ventilation from Homevent

hrv diagram

In today's day and age, modern houses are generally sealed and the air is laden with moisture and pollutants. The moisture & pollutants are created from the daily activities of the occupants of the house. The installation of an air exchanger inside the house will remove stale and polluted air from the house to the outside and replace it by an equivalence of fresh air. Generally, an air exchanger system installed properly will renew the air of all the important parts of the house. How does this happen?

Through a ductwork system installed in the walls; those ducts ending with fresh air distribution grilles and stale air exhaust grilles. Fresh air distribution grilles are located in each room of the house needing fresh air (which are, among others, bedrooms, kitchen and living room).

The stale air to outside grilles are generally located at the highest level of the house, where the excess humidity and pollutants build-up. The fresh air distribution and stale air exhaust ducts are connected to the air exchanger.

Two other ducts are also connected to the unit: one for gathering fresh air from outside and the other one to exhaust the stale air to outside. The air exchanger manages the ventilation for the whole house.

What Heat Recovery Ventilation (HRV) is used for

Ventilation through open windows is not always ideal, especially during the colder months when you are trying to keep your premises warm. The use of an energy efficient ventilation system with heat recovery will help to maintain a fresh ambiance and help to recover up to 90% of the warmth created inside. With an ever increasing demand for building air tightness for improved energy efficiency, effective ventilation is also necessary for improving indoor air quality and the protection of building structures from fungal growth.
