What is the Benefit with

Greenheck Energy Recovery?

For the Design Engineer

Adhering to ASHRAE Guidelines

ASHRAE Standard 90.1 provides design guidelines regarding when it is most beneficial to use energy recovery. Depending upon your geographic location and the percentage of outdoor air in the application, ASHRAE recommends when to use energy recovery. An important part of this guideline is that when energy recovery is recommended, the device should be a minimum of 50% total (sensible and latent) effectiveness according to ARI 1060 testing procedure.

ASHRAE Standard 189.1 provides high performing building design guidelines. This requires even higher energy recovery device performance than Standard 90.1. When energy recovery is recommended, the device shall be a minimum 60% total (sensible and latent) effectiveness according to ARI 1060 testing procedure.

LEED Certification Credits

For Green Building designs, the ERV offers an excellent way to acquire credits in both Energy and Atmosphere (EA) and Indoor Environmental Quality (EQ) categories towards a LEED certification.

CAPS Program

Prepared to Support Green Building Efforts

CAPS is Greenheck’s comprehensive product selection program. The CAPS program was developed with ease of use and fast selections in mind. There is also useful information available for making selections and educating people who are new to energy recovery technology. CAPS also provides submittals which includes unit overview, electrical information, fan charts, arrangements, engineering drawings, payback information, and psychrometric processes.

CSI Specifications

After a unit has been selected in CAPS, an accurate unit specification is available for use in the job specification. These specifications have been recently updated to the CSI format.

Industry Certification

To ensure performance on the job site, Greenheck emphasizes the need for the 3 major industry certifications for energy recovery units: AMCA Licensed for Air Performance, ETL Listed for safety, and ARI Certification on the energy recovery wheel.
