What Is an HRV Air Exchanger?
A Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) is a mechanical ventilation system that helps exchange stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air while transferring some heat between the airstreams. HRV systems include components such as the cabinet, filters, heat exchange core, fans, condensate drainage, accessible duct connections and interior intake and exhaust grilles. These parts may require periodic inspection, filter maintenance and cleaning according to the equipment manufacturer’s recommendations and accessibility.
