The heat recovery ventilation system (HRV) is a technology designed to guarantee a constant exchange of air inside buildings without wasting energy. In an age where energy efficiency is a priority, HRV with heat recovery is an optimal solution for improving living comfort while reducing consumption.

What is the advantage of a heat recovery system?

Unlike a traditional HRV system, which simply extracts stale air and introduces new air, an HRV with heat recovery uses an exchanger to retain the thermal energy of the expelled air and transfer it to the incoming air. This process allows for a drastic reduction in heat loss, improving the building's energy efficiency and reducing heating and cooling costs.

How does a heat recovery HRV work?

The heart of an HRV system with heat recovery is the heat exchanger, a device that allows thermal energy to pass between two air flows without mixing them. The stale air extracted from the rooms gives up its heat to the incoming fresh air, which is thus preheated during the winter or cooled in the summer.

In addition to energy efficiency, these systems are equipped with advanced filters that retain dust, pollen and other pollutants, significantly improving indoor air quality. In this way, HRV not only ensures a healthy environment, but also helps to reduce allergens and harmful particulates.

Advantages of HRV with heat recovery

An HRV system with heat recovery offers numerous advantages, including:

• Improved indoor air quality, thanks to the elimination of pollutants, dust and excess humidity
• Energy saving and sustainability, as it reduces the need for heating and cooling, with a positive impact on costs and the environment
• Prevention of mold and condensation, improving living comfort and protecting the building structure

And here are the options available in the Ariosa range, among the dual-flow solutions with heat recovery.

Ariosa HV

Ariosa HV stands out for its high energy efficiency and the possibility of both horizontal and vertical installation. Its heat recovery unit, available in a sensible or enthalpy version, ensures significant energy savings by adapting to climatic conditions. In addition, the advanced filtration system improves air quality by eliminating polluting particulates.

One of the strengths of Ariosa HV is its smart control, which allows the system to be managed via a dedicated app, enabling environmental conditions to be monitored and optimizing operation in real time.

Ariosa DOT

Ariosa DOT is a heat recovery HRV unit designed for individual rooms. With a recovery efficiency of up to 90%, it guarantees significant energy savings while maintaining a compact size and simple installation.

Its intelligent operation includes Wi-Fi management, allowing you to adjust the ventilation as needed. In addition, its modern and customizable design makes it suitable for any living environment.

The Ariosa range

But there are also the latest innovations designed to expand the most complete “Made in Italy” range for HRV…

• Ariosa V – The unit for centralized systems dedicated to large surfaces, with flow rates of 350, 450 and 600 mc/h;
• Ariosa Vcompact – The extremely compact HRV machine for vertical installations, designed for installation in kitchen wall units, laundry room furniture, technical modules;
• Ariosa DOTmini – The most compact version in the range, with dual flow operation but a single connection channel to the outside.

The Ariosa range includes an ever-increasing number of solutions for any type of HRV system and for any context: all the units have in common, of course, a device for heat exchange between the flows.

Why choose an HRV with heat recovery

Adopting a heat recovery Heat Recovery Ventilation system means investing in energy efficiency, air quality and living comfort.

Choosing between Ariosa HV, Ariosa DOT or the other options in the Ariosa range depends on your specific needs: in all cases, HRV technology with heat recovery is a step forward in creating healthier, more efficient and sustainable environments.
