The basic objectives for providing acceptable indoor air quality (IAQ) are to 0.20 0.20 0.25 0.25 0.30 0.30 0.35 0.35 0.40 SENSIBLE HEAT RATIO = Qs / Qt SENSIBLE HEAT RATIO = Qs / Qt control indoor contaminates levels while maintaining desired indoor air temperature and humidity.
  • Page 4 What is the Benefit with Greenheck Energy Recovery? For the Building Owner • Improved Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Introducing fresh, outdoor air to a building is a key component to sustaining excellent indoor air quality. Outdoor air can be very expensive to heat and cool, but the ERV unit can provide an economical approach to delivering outdoor air into a building.
  • Page 5 What is the Benefit with Greenheck Energy Recovery? For the Design Engineer • Adhering to ASHRAE Guidelines ASHRAE Standard 90.1 provides design guidelines regarding when it is most beneficial to use energy recovery. Depending upon your geographic location and the percentage of outdoor air in the application, ASHRAE recommends when to use energy recovery.

    Accessories Economizer Control (Free Cooling) Take advantage of cool outdoor air to handle space loads. A call for cool air is sent to the unit’s control center which triggers one of a few different options to bring in fresh cool air: Energy Wheel On/Off The wheel cycles off when it’s in the free cooling range (temperature or enthalpy), and cycles on when outdoor air is too warm or too cold.
