An ERV (Energy Recovery Ventilator) exchanges stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air while transferring heat and humidity between the two streams, improving comfort and efficiency.
How is an ERV different from an HRV?
ERVs transfer both heat and moisture, helping balance indoor humidity. HRVs only transfer heat.
Where can a Panasonic ERV be installed?
They are for indoor use in homes or light commercial spaces, typically in attics, utility rooms, or mechanical areas, with ducting to living spaces and outside vents.
Who manufactures Panasonic ERVs?
Panasonic ERVs are made by Panasonic Corporation, a global manufacturer of electronics and building products, with North American distribution managed by Panasonic Life Solutions.
Are Panasonic ERVs energy efficient?
Yes. Panasonic ERVs are engineered with ECM motors and high-performance energy recovery cores, reducing heating and cooling loads while maintaining balanced ventilation. This makes them more efficient than standard exhaust fans or passive ventilation.
What is the warranty for Panasonic ERV units?
Most Panasonic ERVs include a 6-year warranty on the motor and a 3-year warranty on all other parts. Warranty terms may vary by model, so check the product manual or Panasonic’s official documentation for details.
