Features
Available : Canada - USA
Engineered to be one of the most eco-friendly HRV air exchangers on the market.

The Venmar AVS HRV EKO 1.5 has an innovative design that incorporates extremely high performance motors that are equivalent in power to a compact fluorescent bulb (13.5 watts each), which enable EKO to significantly lower energy costs without affecting its performance.

Additional energy efficiency is found through its advanced heat recovery core, which can retain up to 80% of a home’s heating or cooling.   Ideal for small to mid-size homes, this balanced system offers superior indoor air quality and excess humidity control.
