May 9: ERV System installed


Above is shown the Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) [ temporarily displayed on a garbage can pedestal prior to being mounted on the framed wall ], which is designed to pre-heat and humidify incoming air by transferring energy from ventilation air that is exhausted through the ERV to fresh air that is brought into the residence through the ERV.  The temperature fluctuation between the intake and exhaust air through the ERV will only be 2 deg. F. 



Above, supply and return ventilation air manifolds are shown mounted to the SIP ceiling with ducts connected to their respective manifolds, which will in turn connect to the ERV unit (connection to the ERV not completed, at the time of the photo) 

The following photos show ventilation ducts being placed in soffit locations throughout the residence. 





Below, a frame is completed for a site-built air register for the Kitchen.
