How we repair your HRV
A heat recovery ventilator brings in fresh air and exhausts stale air through a heat exchange core that captures heat but not moisture, common in cold climates. An HRV typically uses a fan, filters or media, a humidistat or sensors, and an electronic control, plus a compressor on dehumidifiers. A technician checks airflow, sensors and controls, filters and drains, and any refrigeration or wiring involved.
