Introducing the Biggest Breakthrough in Ventilation Since

1
Introducing the Biggest Breakthrough in
Ventilation Since

• Fresh Air

2

• 1972 First commercialization of cross flow
  fixed plate energy recovery ventilator
• 1981 Lawrence Berkley Labs identifies the
  advantages of ERV cores for residential
  ventilation
• 1983 RenewAire begins manufacturing ERVs in
  Madison, Wisconsin other manufacturers follow
  with similar unit layouts

3

• 1999 RenewAires EV series sets the standard
  for performance, quality and value
• 2003 The breakthrough everyone has been waiting
  for dramatically lower installed cost - and
  only available with Breeze

4
Field trials confirm Breeze units install in
one-half to one third the time of traditional
ERVs.
5
What is Breeze?

• A line of residential ERVs
• BR70 70 CFM ERV
• BR130 130 CFM ERV
• TW Kits Through-the-Wall duct and hood kit
• Economical and effective ventilation for
  condominiums, town homes and smaller homes

A New Line of Residential ERV
7
How is Breeze Different?

• Mounts to furnace (AC) return air ductwork
• Has only two duct connections
• The other two connections are out the back
  directly into the RA duct
• Has integrated automatic proportional runtime
  control
• Can be mounted to exterior wall with TW Kit
  requiring only two indoor duct connections

Two Ways to Install ERVs

• Central Exhaust Use EV Series
• General Ventilation Use BR Series
• EV Series may be used

10
Central Exhaust

• 20 CFM continuous per bathroom
• 50 CFM intermittent per bathroom
• Must have control in each bathroom served (PB24)
• Other possible exhaust locations
• Kitchen area (cannot exhaust range hood)
• Utility room, smoking room, hobby room, etc.

Exhaust From Kitchen
14
Central Exhaust Cont

• Small ductwork system to collect air from each
  exhaust location
• Fresh air may be supplied to furnace (AC) return
  air duct
• EV1302 bathrooms, EV2003 bathrooms, EV3005
  bathrooms
• Replaces bathroom exhaust fans

15
General Ventilation

• ERV selected based on size of home and/or number
  of residents
• ASHRAE 62-1998 0.35 air changes/hour
• BR70 1500 square feet living space
• BR130/EV130 2700 square feet living space
• EV200 4000 square feet living space
• EV300 6000 square feet living space

16
General Ventilation Cont

• ERV selected based on size of home and/or number
  of residents
• ASHRAE 62.2-2003
• 7.5 CFM/occupant ( of bedrooms 1) Plus
• 0.01 CFM/ square foot of living space
• Example 3 bedroom, 1500 sq ft home requires 4
  times 7.530 CFM plus 1500 times 0.0115CFM for a
  total of 45 CFM

17
General Ventilation Cont

• Bathroom exhaust fans are also required
• Air may be drawn from and supplied to the furnace
  (AC) return air duct as long as short circuiting
  is avoided (by running furnace blower)
• The majority of ERV installations are used for
  General Ventilation most likely due to lower cost

Cut hole in Return Air Duct bend flange in.
Mount hanging bracket on duct.
19
Mount Hinge Bar in proper location on unit.
20
Hang unit on duct. Wire Breeze to furnace
control.
21
Swing Breeze into position and screw in place.
22
Locate Fresh Air Hood away from all exhausts.
23
Exhaust Hood location is not critical.
24
Installation is generally completed in under
two hours!
25
Neat and Clean!
26
Breeze can be mounted on Return Air drop.
27
Hole cut.
28
Hang and fasten unit to drop.
29
Alternate Return Air drop orientation.
30
Easy Installation

• Mounted to furnace or AC return air ductwork
• Under duct lengthwise
• Under duct crosswise
• Side of duct
• On return drop (with some cautions)
• Mounted to exterior wall with thru-the-wall kit
• Mounted to ceiling to conceal two ducts
