Honeywell HRV/ERV Ventilation Systems
Today’s homes are built tight for energy efficiency, but that same tightness can also restrict the intake of fresh air and trap dust, allergens and more. The average person spends 90% of his or her time indoors, breathing in stale air. In fact, poor indoor air quality ranks among the top five environmental risks to public health. Honeywell offers several solutions for bringing fresh air into your home while still helping you maintain energy efficiency.
Honeywell offers three whisper-quiet, low-maintenance choices for ventilation.
Y8150 Fresh Air Ventilation System
The Y8150 works with your existing heating and cooling fan system to deliver fresh air to your home. Its “set-it-and-forget-it” program gives you optimal ventilation without having to worry about settings. Your installer sets it up and the Y8150 does the work.
Perfect Window Ventilation Systems — HRV and ERV
Honeywell’s Perfect Window Ventilation Systems allow you to manually or automatically adjust the fresh air flow in your home. You can also add options for adjusting dehumidistat and fan timer controls.
There are two types of Perfect Window systems — Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRV) and Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERV). Each can be connected to your existing heating and cooling system by your installer or will work as a stand-alone system. And each can be configured to meet your personal needs.
Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV)
- Provides continuous exchange of stale air for fresh air
- Helps reduce window condensation and excess moisture

- Ideal for cold climates
Energy Recovery Ventilator
