Fresh air appliances

Thanks to space-age technology, your home can keep the inside in and outside out more efficiently than ever before. But locking the fresh air out is a bad idea. A fresh air appliance with heat and energy recovery (HRVs/ERVs) will allow you to bring it all in without sacrificing the energy your home worked so hard to produce.

Fresh air appliances








































Fresh air appliances (HRVs/ERVs)

The home climate is not constant. Instead, it depends on multiple factors, such as room moisture, CO2 saturation, room size, number of occupants, and how long they stay there.

All these factors are fulfilled with a correctly sized fresh air appliance with heat (HRV) or energy (ERV) recovery. The system is perfectly tailored to your requirements, whether it’s a new build or a retrofit project.
