A dedicated HRV is used to provide what type of air management?

A dedicated Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) is primarily used for ventilation. It incorporates a system that facilitates the exchange of stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air while recovering heat from the outgoing air to precondition the incoming air. This process enhances indoor air quality by removing contaminants and moisture, ensuring a constant supply of fresh air without losing significant heat energy, which is crucial for energy efficiency in building systems.

The HRV operates effectively in climates where both heating and cooling are necessary, but its primary function is to manage the flow of air in a way that promotes better ventilation. This makes it essential for maintaining healthy air quality and comfort levels inside a building.
