Manufacturers of all sizes are introducing energy recovery ventilators (ERVs); heat recovery ventilators (HRVs); blowers; air curtains; high-velocity systems; and high-volume, low-speed (HVLS) fans that push the industry forward in response to a demand for more efficient ventilation systems.
After years of planning, design, and construction, Belfast Cohousing & Ecovillage is complete. All of the homes were built to the passive house standard: they use 90 percent less energy to heat and cool than a typical code-built home. To maintain healthy IAQ, each home is equipped with a HRV system.
Zehnder America announced it is now locally sourcing in the United States both its new ComfoFlex ducting and register boxes as part of its comprehensive approach to providing a heat recovery ventilation (HRV) or energy recovery ventilation (ERV) system with properly matched air distribution components.
Advances in heat and energy recovery ventilation technology, driven largely by industry standards and increasingly stringent building codes, have pushed manufacturers to offer multiple energy-saving ventilation solutions contractors can choose from for new and retrofit projects on residential and commercial structures.
