OVERVIEW

Upgrade your indoor air quality and energy efficiency with Vents US Frigate ERV EC systems from HVACDirect.com. Designed for modern residential and light commercial ventilation applications, the Frigate ERV EC series delivers continuous balanced airflow while helping reduce heating and cooling energy loss throughout the year. These advanced Energy Recovery Ventilators continuously remove stale indoor air and replace it with fresh, filtered outdoor air to create healthier, more comfortable indoor environments. Engineered with high-efficiency energy recovery technology, Vents US Frigate ERV EC systems use an advanced enthalpy core that transfers both heat and humidity between outgoing exhaust air and incoming fresh air streams. During colder months, warmth and moisture from exhaust air are recovered and transferred to incoming air to reduce heating demands and maintain indoor comfort. During warmer seasons, excess heat and humidity are redirected outdoors to support more efficient cooling and balanced indoor humidity levels.
