How Heat Recovery Ventilation Works

The heat recovery ventilation system eliminates the need for traditional and energy inefficient wall vents.
It works by extracting stale waste air from a home's wet areas (kitchen, toilet, shower room, utility room etc.).

This 'warm' air is then brought through a counterflow heat exchanger, which warms as the air passes over it and then discharges the waste air to the atmosphere.

At the same time, fresh cool air from outside is brought into the counterflow where it gets warmed and then distributed (via ducting) to the home's occupied rooms (bedrooms, living room, study, lounge etc.).

The result for your home is continuous ventilation with minimum heat loss.
