HRV and ERV systems are quite interesting topics of conversation. When we mention their names, homeowners rarely know what they are or how they work. But when we talk about what they do, all of a sudden everyone wants an ERV or HRV machine. They provide a valuable service in your home that can’t be done by any other system.
HRV and ERV stand for heat recovery ventilator and energy recovery ventilator respectively. Heat recovery ventilators in Atlantic County are designed specifically to bring in fresh air as if you were opening a window in your home, except they heat the fresh air in a unique process known as counter-flow heat exchange which is energy efficient.
We’ll get into all of the details below. Keep in mind for any readers in Folsom, Linwood, or Margate City, that we’re offering a free UV light purifier with each ERV/HRV purchase. So now couldn’t be a better time to invest!
Cooling season is coming to a close, even though it’s taking its sweet time. And heating season won’t be here for another few weeks. This is precisely the reason why some people love the fall, we get a brief period of time where temperatures are mild and we don’t even need our HVAC systems! It’s the perfect time to go check out some fall foliage, take that last hike of the season, and save money on your energy bills.
Air purification is an interesting process. There are different air purifiers on the market that clean your air in different ways, but one stands out above the rest. That’s a UV air purifier. UV stands for an ultraviolet light air purifier, and it’s a system that basically uses low-frequency UV light to kill microorganisms before they have a chance to harm you. That’s right, this includes viruses, bacteria, mold spores, and any other single-celled organisms that could potentially make you sick or uncomfortable.
Maintenance is important for a lot of appliances and equipment, not just your HVAC system. For instance, if someone told you that you never had to change the oil in your car, you’d look at them like they were crazy, right? Likewise, with cleaning down your countertops and surfaces, some things in your home need to be taken care of, or you’ll see a huge hit to your home comfort and an expensive cost down the line.
Summertime temperatures are beating down on us at this point, and it’s becoming clear that our air conditioners are the first line of defense! Heatwaves are springing up all over the country and electricity prices are starting to go up as demand peaks for energy usage. This isn’t anything new, and the good news in this situation is that there’s a solution out there for homeowners who are struggling.
A new air conditioner can be quite an investment. Homeowners will pay for anything before deciding it’s finally time to purchase a new AC system. We completely understand, money doesn’t grow on trees and it’s becoming increasingly more important to save every penny you can! That being said, sometimes purchasing a new AC can be a way to save money if you’re looking at it from a long-term perspective.
If anything has become abundantly clear in the past year or so, it’s that homeowners need help with their indoor air quality. With the spread of a global pandemic and our lives being halted by an airborne contaminant, we’re starting to learn more about sanitation. We still encourage everyone to wash their hands regularly and keep surfaces clean, but sometimes that’s just not going to be enough. Allergens, viruses, bacteria, dust, and debris are going to haunt the very air you breathe unless something is done about it.
