HVAC system designers have realized the benefits of using Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) in commercial and institutional buildings. However
http://www.cheapmexicosoccerjersey.com/ ... da-jersey/ , as with many newly adopted technologies, questions of how best to apply this product are being raised. One application issue in particular is whether to apply an ERV as a stand alone unit on its own curb, or as a bolt-on accessory to a rooftop air conditioning unit.
What is the difference between the two systems? Although both systems require an exhaust air stream as an energy source to pre-condition outdoor air, the primary difference between the two systems is where the exhaust air is taken from. The drawings at the right illustrate this difference and help visualize how the ERVs tie into the HVAC ventilation system.
Some system designers may show a preference for the bolt-on ERV. This may be because they perceive that the installation cost will be lower, or they prefer having a single point of responsibility for the ERVrooftop unit.
