This blog primarily introduces the principles, functionalities, and benefits of enthalpy heat exchangers (also known as energy recovery ventilators). Enthalpy heat exchangers precondition incoming air by transferring both temperature (sensible heat) and moisture (latent heat) between two separate air streams, reducing the energy consumption for air conditioning and heating while enhancing indoor air quality. Unlike traditional heat exchangers that only transfer temperature, enthalpy systems regulate both temperature and humidity, making them particularly suitable for humid climates by preventing winter dryness and summer mold growth. Their wide range of applications—from residential homes to commercial buildings, industrial facilities, hospitals, and schools—delivers significant energy savings, improved comfort, and reduced carbon emissions. When choosing the right unit, factors such as core materials, climate compatibility, system capacity, and ease of maintenance should be considered. Overall, enthalpy heat exchangers offer an efficient and sustainable ventilation solution for modern buildings.
