ProAir Systems is to host Heat Recovery Ventilation Information Day next week, 23 November.

The training course will focus on the installation of heat recovery ventilation systems, the concepts and the technology which go alongside. The instruction and guidance provided will be based on many years experience of designing, manufacturing, installing and commissioning of HRV systems.

The course is split into two parts, with the first addressing some of the science underpinning HRV and the second highlighting examples of best practices of installation and commissioning.

• An overview of heat exchanger technology.

• How to calculate air velocities given air flows and duct sizes.


• System pressures and the consequences for efficiency.


• Mould growth, its causes and prevention.

• The hygroscopic properties of air as relevant to ventilation.


• Efficiencies in fan and motor technologies.


• How to design for comfort, in terms of airflow and air movement.


• Design duct layouts which work, in a residential context.


• Ventilation and acoustics.


• Controls strategy for HRV.


• Air purification and filtration.
