Energy Recovery Ventilator

The use of an ERV is required when mitigation radon in large (over 2,000 Sq.Ft.) condominiums because the amount of outside air required to reduce the radon level is typically to much of an additional load on the homes AC system resulting in high humidity and the potential for mold problems. ERV systems can be difficult to install and require cosmetic alterations such as drywall enclosures and soffits. ERV units can also be installed in single family homes with moderate radon levels when ASD is not applicable. The benefit of an ERV system goes beyond the ability to reduce radon levels but often times will improve the overall indoor air quality.
