Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRVs) and Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) are energy efficient add-ons to your HVAC system that increase your comfort and save money. If you have either of these units as part of your home heating and cooling system, consider adding them to your WeCare Maintenance or Protection Plan coverage. Regular cleaning and maintenance will be covered. When your heating system includes multiple units and components, it makes sense to let certified home HVAC technicians take care of the entire system’s service and maintenance.
You can expect the following checklist to be completed as part of our Precision Tune-Up:
- Verify airflow and clean the vents, grills and ductwork.
- Clean and lubricate fans, if needed.
- Inspect the condensate drain.
- Clean the heat exchange core.
- Complete system inspection.
- All in all a 13 point HRV/ERV maintenance checklist is performed.
- Plus a discount off regular labour rates if repairs are ever required.
This type of regular maintenance, inspection, and cleaning can add years to the life of your HRV, keeping it running efficiently and avoiding future problems. Most homeowners don’t have the time or know-how to do all of this work correctly; why not turn it over to someone who does?
If you have any questions about HRV or ERV maintenance, talk to us about the benefits of a heating and cooling maintenance plan for you and your home. It’s the best way to keep energy-efficient heating systems working through the winter, keeping your family cozy and warm.
