ERVyksiköt
ERVyksiköt, or Energy Recovery Ventilation units, are mechanical systems designed to improve indoor air quality while conserving energy in buildings. They exchange stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air, recovering heat or cooling from the outgoing air to precondition the incoming air. This process reduces the load on heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems and contributes to better thermal comfort, especially in tightly sealed modern constructions.
The core component of an ERV is a heat exchanger that can be counterflow, crossflow, or a
Installation standards for ERVyksiköt vary by region but generally follow national ventilation codes and the European
In addition to energy efficiency, ERV units contribute to compliance with green building certifications such as
