Essential Info
Remove stale indoor air and replace it with fresh, clean air from outdoors with an Air-to-Air Heat Exchanger. This technically advanced, controlled mechanical ventilation system not only provides an economical solution for excessive indoor humidity, odors, stuffiness and other indoor air pollutants, it also helps reduce heating and/or cooling costs for today's highly insulated homes.
Due to excessive weight, Smarthome will add a heavy-item shipping charge to this item. This charge will be reflected in the shipping amount on the check-out page.

More Info

Modern homes are constructed practically air tight. Older homes have been sealed tighter over the years by the owners with new windows, door seals and caulking. Preventing the loss of indoor air also means that we don't get enough fresh air into the home. This results in health issues as dangerous fumes and gases from common household products (VOCs), unhealthy buildup of radon gases, and mold and mildew. But the Air-to-Air Heat Exchanger corrects that by flushing out stale air and replacing it with fresh air from the outside.
In addition to providing a consistent supply of fresh air, the Air-to-Air Heat Exchanger can help significantly lower heating costs during the winter by transferring heat from the exhaust air to the fresh air stream. In the summer, it also reduces the load on the air conditioner by lowering the temperature of the fresh outdoor air. Once installed, you'll soon realize that it won't cost you as many energy dollars to make your home a comfortable temperature.
Any accomplished do-it-yourselfer can complete the installation in 4-8 hours; no professional installation is needed. The Air-to-Air Heat Exchanger includes a standard 12" x 12" air filter that will need replacing at least every three months of operation; more often in heavily polluted areas. The heat exchanger core, which is easily removable, must be hosed down at least once a year. You can do this in the sink or outside with the garden hose.
The blower motors are thermally protected, the housing has a safety interlock switch, and the housing is a heavy gauge sheet metal.
Other Features Include:- Dual-speed balanced fans. Class B, Thermally Protected motors
- Corrosion-proof Polypropelene core (flame rating UL 94HB)
- Automatic electronic frost protection (user adjustable)
- Condensate drain fitting for 3/8" hose (sold separately)
- Replaceable 12" x 12" air filter
- Safety interlock switch
- Plug into a grounded 110-120 Volt AC outlet. Power may also be supplied via a humidistat, pollution detector, radon detector or timer (sold separately)
The Air-to-Air Heat Exchanger has an air velocity rating of 150. Ideal for smaller homes, a 100-CFM version is also available.
