If you own a newer home, it is most likely equipped with a Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) or an Energy/Enthalpy Recovery Ventilatoran (ERV) System. These systems are crucial in maintaining in-home air quality, where they function to keep conditioned air from leaking out of your home and unconditioned air from seeping into your home.

HRVs and ERVs are similar devices in that both supply air to the home and exhaust stale air while recovering energy from the exhaust air in the process. The primary difference between the two is that an HRV transfers heat while an ERV transfers both heat and moisture.
