Multi-family residential (MFR) building projects are increasingly designed to take advantage of high-performance ventilation strategies, which often include the use of energy recovery. Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERV) intended to stand alone in single-family residences have been used to ventilate MFR projects, but these small units have not always provided features necessary to integrate with the larger building’s systems. Apartment living areas have different ventilation requirements than apartment kitchens. This session provide new ideas for capturing kitchen and bathroom waste heat while providing high Indoor air quality (IAQ) by integrating with separate exhaust systems, kitchen hoods and controls systems.
