¿Qué hace un intercambiador de aire?
Here at Pro Duct Solutions,we get asked often by our customers”how does an air exchanger work?”.We’ve decided to make a article explaining the importance of Air exchangers.
Estos sistemas son muy eficientes energéticamente y pueden ajustarse a cualquier nivel de humedad en tu hogar; simplemente se conectan a la red de conductos existente de tu caldera.
When these homes are too tightly built it creates moisture and condensation during the winter which is why they came out with air exchangers.The purpose of these air exchangers are to provide fresh air into the air system along with dehumidifying the existing air to ensure your home isn’t creating mold growth.These systems also clean the existing stagnant air inside the home,allowing fresh air to move around freely.
Si consideras que tu hogar no recibe suficiente aire fresco, podrías optar por instalar un intercambiador de aire. Algunas personas se preguntan: “¿Por qué no abro simplemente la ventana?”. El intercambiador de aire deshumidifica el aire procedente del exterior, asegurando que no entre demasiada humedad en tu hogar.
¿Necesito un intercambiador de aire?
You might be wondering”Do I need an air exchanger,?”well there are two simple ways of finding out.The first method of finding out if your home needs a air exchanger is seeing if your home is an R-2000 home.This means adding an added layer of insulation and Thermal poly around the whole house.If so then your home might be creating too much moisture and condensation.The second method would be getting one of our trained specialist in moisture control to take a thorough analysis of your home.For best Health&comfort in your home we recommend 35-50%RH.

Cada hogar es diferente según la cantidad de condensación que se acumule durante el invierno. La respuesta simple es sí. Durante el invierno, tu vivienda experimentará una elevada cantidad de condensación debido al aislamiento y a las barreras contra la humedad (polietileno térmico). Es conveniente ajustar el intercambiador de aire a un nivel adecuado de humedad para esta temporada.

Every home is different depending on how much condensation builds up during the winter,Simple answer is yes.During the winter,your home will experience high amount of condensation due to the insulation and moisture barriers(Thermo poly).You’ll want to set your Air exchanger to the proper humidity level for the winter.
Mantenimiento de tu intercambiador de aire
Along with everything in this world there is some maintenance work to be done on these units.We recommend getting the filters cleaned every year by one of our trained technicians.The process includes taking apart the units filter components with thoroughly cleaning/drying them.Our technician will then take a look at the vent covers on the outside to make sure they are working proper and haven’t been damaged.We finish off by preforming a function test to ensure the thermostat is in working order.
