Heat Recovery Ventilation: Why Efficiency Matters (Removed)

This course is no longer active. AEC Daily will not report completion information for this course.

In the last couple of decades, houses have become progressively airtight due to energy efficiency and cost concerns. While air infiltration and ex-filtration rates have been significantly reduced, the need for an efficient ventilation system has become extremely important. The course evaluates different types of mechanical ventilation systems and discusses why heat recovery ventilation (HRV) and energy recovery ventilation (ERV) systems are characterized by a high level of energy efficiency and as an effective means for improving indoor air quality.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Identify the advantages and weaknesses of supply, exhaust, and balanced ventilation systems.
  • Discuss how heat recovery ventilation enables a comfortable and healthy environment.
  • Determine the role of an HRV/ERV system in an energy efficient home.
  • Evaluate HRV/ERV systems and select the most effective system for a specific application.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered online, at your own pace.
