Heat and Energy Recovery Ventilatorsin the Milwaukee Area

A recovery ventilator, also known as an energy recovery ventilator (ERV), is a type of ventilation system that helps to improve indoor air quality while also

  • Increasing energy efficiency
  • Improving air quality
  • Providing consistent comfort

A recovery ventilator works by exchanging the stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air, but instead of simply exhausting the indoor air and bringing in outdoor air, it uses a heat exchanger to transfer heat and humidity from the outgoing air to the incoming air.

Still with us?

That helps to pre-condition the incoming air, making it closer in temperature and humidity to the indoor air, which can reduce the load on the heating and cooling system.

Lori BogieLori Bogie ★★★★★ I am a Capital Cares Club member because it is a good value for my heating-cooling needs in a condo with a 20+ year old heating/cooling system. I wanted to have the confidence that I would receive priority treatment when the system failed. I am religious about having both the heating & cooling systems maintained and count on being alerted to potential problems.Today, the extremely thorough, knowledgeable and professional Colin performed the furnace maintenance and showed me in pictures where the system was failing. He did give me some repair alternatives but I will be getting a quote to replace the entire system tomorrow. I trust and value the service that he has performed for me in the past and know that he is concerned for my safety. If I choose to install a new system, my club membership will offset some of the cost.Thanks, Colin and Capital Heating, A/C & Electric.******Today, the professional team came to install not only a much-needed cooling & heating system but a new water heater that was due to fail within the next 12 months.

Advantages of Recovery Ventilators

Improved indoor air quality

Recovery ventilators help to improve indoor air quality by continuously removing stale, polluted air from inside your home and replacing it with fresh outdoor air.

Energy efficiency

Recovery ventilators use a heat exchanger to transfer heat and humidity from the outgoing air to the incoming air, which can reduce the load on your heating and cooling system. This can lead to significant energy savings over time.

Comfort

Recovery ventilators help to maintain a consistent indoor temperature and humidity by pre-conditioning the incoming air. This can help to reduce hot and cold spots, and improve overall comfort in your home.

Cost-effective

Although recovery ventilators may have a higher initial cost compared to traditional ventilation systems, they can be cost-effective over time due to their energy efficiency and potential energy savings.

Health benefits

Improved indoor air quality can lead to various health benefits such as reducing respiratory problems, allergies, and other health issues associated with poor indoor air quality.

Overall, recovery ventilators provide a great way to improve indoor air quality while reducing energy consumption and improving comfort in your home.

Is It Right For Me?

Whole House Ventilator Milwaukee

Recovery ventilators are particularly useful in homes that are tightly sealed or have high levels of insulation, as these types of houses may be more prone to poor indoor air quality and humidity levels.

If you have respiratory problems, allergies, or other health issues that may be aggravated by poor indoor air quality, you could also greatly benefit from a recovery ventilator. These systems can effectively remove pollutants, allergens, and other contaminants from the indoor air, which can improve the overall health and well-being of you and your family.

Recovery ventilators are also ideal for homes in areas with extreme weather conditions, such as very hot or cold temperatures, as they can help to maintain a consistent indoor temperature and humidity level while reducing energy consumption.

The Difference Between ERV and HRV

  • The main difference between an Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) and a Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) is the type of heat exchange mechanism they use to transfer heat and moisture between the incoming and outgoing air streams.
  • An HRV transfers only heat between the incoming and outgoing airstreams, while an ERV transfers both heat and moisture. This means that an ERV is more effective in humid climates, as it can help to regulate indoor humidity levels by transferring moisture from the incoming to the outgoing air.
  • In cold climates, an HRV is more effective because it can recover heat from the outgoing air to preheat the incoming air, which can reduce heating costs. In warmer climates, an ERV is more effective because it can help to reduce the load on the cooling system by transferring some of the moisture and heat from the incoming air to the outgoing air.
  • Both HRVs and ERVs provide similar benefits, such as improved indoor air quality, reduced energy consumption, and improved comfort. The choice between an HRV or ERV depends on the specific climate conditions, as well as the indoor air quality and ventilation requirements of the building or home.

Our friendly Capital call-takers are standing by to answer your questions!
