Typical Applications

The ERV unit can add to the benefit of a building design anywhere that outdoor air is required and the exhaust air is considered “clean” (ASHRAE class 1 or class 2 air ratings). Some examples of commercial and institutional applications where energy recovery units have been utilized are given below.

Animal Shelters

Bars and Clubs

Churches

Dormitories

Locker Rooms

Nursing Homes

Office Buildings

Printing Shops

Restaurants

Schools

Function Halls

Casinos

Veterinary Hospitals

 

 

 

With Ducted Air Handlers

The ERV unit may be combined with ducted air handling units or fan coil boxes. A single energy recovery ventilator may provide fresh outdoor air for multiple air handling units or in a one-to-one ratio where a single energy recovery ventilator and air handler serve one space.

with packaged rooftop equipment. Fresh, outdoor air enters the energy recovery ventilator and is pretreated before entering the heating/cooling equipment. This pretreating occurs because the energy recovery wheel is transferring latent and sensible energy between the outdoor air and the building exhaust air.
