DirectAir heat recovery ventilator 96 CFM (non-ducted)
Compact top port design HRV with easy-mount wall bracket.
Brings a continuous supply of fresh air into a home while
exhausting an equal amount of contaminated air. HRVs use
what is called a “sensible” heat recovery core. This special
core transfers heat from the exhaust air stream to the
incoming air stream. Fresh incoming air is tempered by the
heat that is transferred from the outgoing air to save on
energy costs. The PHRV96 is equipped with automatic
defrost mechanisms so even if you live in the coldest climates
you can use your HRV all year long.

During the defrost sequence, the supply blower shuts down & the exhaust blower switches into high speed to maximize the effectiveness of the defrost strategy. The unit then returns to normal operation for 25 minutes, and continues cycle.
