ECO-FLOPlus Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) is the all-in-one ventilation solution for new construction and renovation projects. This compact ventilator is capable of exhausting stale indoor air and supplying fresh filtered outdoor air. The reversible axial fan features an EC motor, characterized by low power consumption and quiet operation. The ceramic energy regenerator provides a regeneration efficiency of up to 97%. The heat recovered from the exhaust air will pre-heat or pre-cool the incoming supply air (depending on the season). ECO-FLOPlus ERV has the added benefit of indoor humidity control, making it ideal for use in both living and working environments.
See the Design Features page of ECO-FLOPlus Energy Recovery Ventilator to learn more about the ventilators design.
A single ECO-FLOPlus Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) in ventilation mode can ventilate a room up to 500 square feet, in accordance with ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.2. The fan speed and humidity settings allow for personalized control of each individual room.
Multiple ventilators can operate independently of each other or can work synchronously. The ECO-FLOPlus ERV allows users to install multiple units without hardwiring them together. Instead, an IoT networking operation synchronizes units through a wireless pairing process and Wi-Fi connection. Using the app, the ventilator can be programmed to operate in unison (the same mode) or in complementary (supply and extract) mode. It is recommended that paired units be used to ensure balanced ventilation.
When arranging a ventilation network, install one unit in each room. For larger rooms, install two or more ventilators. The air flows from one room to another through doors, openings, or hallways, ensuring constant circulation. There is no limit to the number of ventilators in a group. A network of ventilators provides an easy, cost-effective solution for larger buildings undergoing construction or renovation.
In the app, the user can create scene(s) according to weather, schedule or device status. For example, when the outdoor relative humidity is higher than 85%, the ventilator can be set to stop or run in exhaust mode. This helps prevent the outdoor humidity from coming inside. The unit will run automatically according to the setting.
The ECO-FLOPlus ventilator is designed for continuous operation. It can operate both in reversible mode with energy regeneration and in supply or exhaust mode without energy regeneration.
Ventilation Mode: The ventilator runs in exhaust or supply mode at a set speed.
Heat Recovery Mode: The ventilator runs in two cycles of 75 seconds each, providing heat and moisture regeneration.
Cycle I: Warm stale indoor air is extracted from the room. It goes through the ceramic regenerator, which absorbs heat and moisture. After 75 seconds, the ventilator switches to air supply mode.
Cycle II: Fresh outdoor air flows through the ventilator, absorbing the accumulated moisture and thermal energy from the energy regnerator and supplying fresh air into the room. After 75 seconds, the ventilator switches back to cycle I.
When two synchronized ventilators are operating in regeneration mode, one ventilator supplies air while the other ventilator exhausts air. In any other mode, the synchronized ventilators will operate in the same direction.
Running wire between ERV units is a thing of the past. The ECO-FLOPlus ERV allows users to install multiple units without hardwiring them together. Instead, an IoT networking operation synchronizes units through a wireless pairing process. This reduces material and labor costs and saves time on an installation.
The maximum linear unobstructed communication signal distance between primary and secondary ventilators is 49 feet. The signal from the primary ventilator to the secondary ventilator can pass through a 7-inch brick wall.
