As
part of our Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) strategy, Carrier has developed a three-step
approach to truly delivering your home's indoor air quality. As you
look at our IAQ logo, the words Control, Filter and Refresh are designed
to support the words Indoor Air Quality. Whether in your residential home,
light commercial or large industrial buildings as the three arrows symbolize,
Carrier's strategy toward improving indoor air quality truly works. With
this brochure, you will see that Refreshing your air is a vital component
to improving your indoor air quality. For more details on Carrier's Control
strategy, see our humidifiers, thermostats and zoning literature. For more
details on Carrier's Filter strategy, see our electronic and mechanical
air cleaner literature.
As
the cold weather settles in, let Carrier's Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV)
provide the fresh indoor weather you deserve. Today's air-tight homes
provide excellent energy efficiency. However, better insulation restricts
the air exchange, trapping stale, polluted air inside your home. Without
proper ventilation, dust, airborne particles, volatile organic compounds
(VOCs), excessive humidity and other pollutants from building materials
constantly recirculate throughout your home. That's why Carrier offers
the HRV.
Carrier's HRV recovers heat from indoor air and transfers it to incoming,
outdoor air so you can enjoy fresh, healthy air without sacrificing energy
efficiency. The HRV draws fresh air into your home from outside. Stale,
polluted air is pulled out of your home and expelled outside. As the two
air streams move through the recovery core, heat is transferred from the
stale outgoing air to the fresh incoming air without ever mixing airstreams.
That means maximum comfort with fresh, clean air and efficient performance
from your carrier system.
In addition to improving air quality, the HRV enhances
your overall comfort. With the easy-to-use, wall-mounted control unit
equipped with three different modes, you'll have fresh air at your fingertips.
The recirculation mode provides air movement throughout your home without
bringing in outside air. The continuous mode works 24 hours a day to provide
a continuous flow of fresh outdoor air into your home. The intermittent
mode operates when the indoor humidity exceeds your desired level, providing
maximum fuel economy. The HRV will ensure your comfort for years to come.
A Carrier HRV expels stale polluted air outdoors and
refreshes your home with clean outside air, while at the same time recovering
energy. This helps prevent and dilute the build-up of radon gas, carbon
monoxide and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs). It is much more economical
than opening a window in the middle of winter or summer. It also reduces
humidity levels during winter months to reduce condensation on windows and
doors.
Carrier has been on the leading edge of the indoor weather industry
since Willis Carrier invented what we now know as air conditioning in
1902. Since that time, Carrier scientists, engineers and dealers have
been providing homeowners with the most advanced indoor technology available.
This technological advantage has enabled Carrier to customize indoor systems
for millions of homeowners nationwide.
Today, you can rely on your local Carrier dealer to evaluate your
indoor weather needs and suggest a customized system that fits those precise
requirements. By recommending the appropriate furnace, air conditioner,
humidifier, air cleaner, ventilator, zoning system and controls, your
Carrier dealer can deliver enhanced comfort while improving the efficiency
of your indoor system. Ask your Carrier dealer for a system evaluation
