ERV’s construction is matched with extensive in-house testing and third-party verification of 
performance and safety. 
How does an energy recovery wheel work?
The basic objectives for providing acceptable indoor air quality (IAQ) are to 
control indoor contaminates levels while maintaining desired indoor air 
temperature and humidity. Compliance with the prescribed ventilation rates 
in ASHRAE Standard 62 appear to satisfy the contaminant issue. However, 
simply increasing outdoor air (OA) requirements with “traditional” HVAC 
systems may not address the humidity issue properly and often leads to 
significant energy cost increases. 
The best solution for most commercial and institutional facilities 
will include an enthalpy wheel product. The enthalpy wheel 
transfers temperature and moisture properties from one 
airstream to another. The result is capturing the cooling and 
heating energy before it leaves the HVAC system. 
Moving through the unit, the return and supply airstreams 
pass on opposite sides of a divider panel. The 
enthalpy wheel rotates between the airstreams 
transferring up to 75% of the energy 
present in the exhaust airstream to 
the supply. 
Utilizing an enthalpy wheel to precondition the outdoor air, 
narrows the operational range of outdoor air conditions 
which the building’s HVAC equipment is designed to 
temper. It is this reduction in the outdoor air range that 
allows for size reduction in heating and cooling equipment 
and reduced energy costs.
