Frequently Asked Questions
Energy recovery ventilation products are engineered devices used in HVAC systems to transfer heat energy from the return air to the supply air. This reduces the heat and/or cooling required of the HVAC system, thus saving energy costs and resources.
AIRotor energy recovery ventilation products include sensible-only or enthalpy energy recovery wheels, cross-flow sensible-only flat plate heat exchangers, and counter-flow enthalpy plate heat exchangers. These devices have up to 85% energy effectiveness.
AIRotor energy recovery ventilation products use the temperature and humidity in the return air to pretreat the outdoor air supply for your HVAC system.
ERV products improve indoor air quality through an increase in the HVAC system fresh air and exhaust air. This facilitates better air exchange and the dilution and removal of harmful elements within the recirculated air.
AIRotor energy recovery ventilation products such as energy recovery wheels, cross-flow plate heat exchangers, and counter-flow plate heat exchangers use the energy within the air stream to pretreat the fresh air supply to the building and save energy costs and resources.
HVAC systems use up to half the power consumption in the world. New laws, regulations, and standards of compliance are beginning to require the use of energy recovery ventilation products. All HVAC systems are subject to cost and energy improvements in design, control systems, operation, and maintenance.
AIRotor energy recovery ventilation products are smart, simple, and great ways to reduce energy consumption and save cost, while improving your indoor air quality.
AIRotor energy recovery ventilation products are a great way to conserve HVAC energy and save costs. Most buildings benefit by using energy recovery ventilation products. Buildings that benefit most are where there are extremes in climate temperature and humidity.
Regardless of climate, AIRotor energy recovery ventilation products improve indoor air quality for occupant health and comfort.
Cost savings with the use of energy recovery ventilation products come from both the operating cost reduction and the reduced HVAC equipment size needed.
Whether you are a building occupant who adjusts the thermostat, a maintenance personnel, a general manager who provides cost benefit analysis, or are a building owner who makes the decision to update the HVAC system with AIRotor energy recovery ventilation products, everyone can be part of the cause to conserve resources, save energy, and reduce costs.
