Nano - Polymer Technology Fuel Cell – proton exchange membrane 4
5
What is an Energy Recovery Ventilator An ERV is an energy recovery exchanger Different from an HRV ERV Transfers temperature and humidity Uses indoor air to “pre-condition” outside air Required by code in many states Saves capital and reduces operating costs Great ROI 5
6
Types of ER / HR Ventilators Fixed Plate Heat: sensible only, low cost / maintenance Plastic, aluminum Fixed Plate Energy: sensible / latent independently Plastic, aluminum, cellulose fiber (paper), nano polymer membrane Enthalpy Wheel: good moisture transfer, higher maintenance, moving parts 6

7 Why Energy Recovery ? Improves Indoor Air Quality Reduces Co2, Formaldehydes, Allergens, etc. Healthier Indoor Environment Employees – increased productivity, reduced absence Students – better performance, increased attendance Reduces Humidity and Mold Reduced Energy Consumption Less work by hvac system Reduced tonnage, new construction

9
So What’s Different ? Independent heat and moisture exchange in a fixed plate Zero flow field leakage (AHRI Certified) Great moisture transfer with no moving parts Moisture is transferred in a molecular state no liquid means no drain required no mold / mildew inherently anti-microbial Simple and low maintenance 9
