Panasonic North America has launched its Intelli-Balance Elite and Elite Plus+ Series of energy recovery ventilators (ERV).
Designed to deliver superior performance throughout the climate spectrum, from extreme cold to hot, humid conditions, these innovative models are engineered to address modern building standards and cater to a diverse range of consumer needs.
Panasonic Eco Systems group sales manager, Leon Van Oostende, said Panasonic carries a legacy of delivering trusted, high-performance ventilation solutions, and the Intelli-Balance Elite series is no exception.
“Engineered for resilience and efficiency, this series offers professionals a reliable, easy-to-install, and code-compliant solution that performs regardless of climate,” he said.
Newly designed to deliver year-round performance, the Intelli-Balance Elite series continuously exchanges stale indoor air with fresh, filtered air, recovering energy from the outgoing air to maximise energy efficiency.
Now with the ability to function effectively in temperatures as low as -13 degrees Fahrenheit, the new models achieve an impressive 90 per cent sensible recovery efficiency (SRE) rating and reduced cubic feet per minute (CFM) loss at static pressure.
With compliance in mind, each unit meets the latest building standards, including American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Standard 62.2, while helping to create healthier indoor environments and support long-term energy savings.
The new Intelli-Balance series excels where older ERVs previously struggled, effectively exchanging heat while prioritizing efficiency during dramatic outdoor temperature changes, no matter the conditions.
Panasonic Eco Systems ventilation group sales manager, Ken Nelson, said the Intelli-Balance Elite series expands their portfolio with advanced, adaptable solutions that promote optimal air circulation and filtration.
The Intelli-Balance Elite series is newly engineered for building professionals seeking a smart investment for single-family homes, multi-family homes, and buildings with code compliance and reliable performance in tight-envelope structures.
Builders can choose from four models with CFM ratings of 110, 120, 140, and 150 cubic feet per minute to suit different project sizes.
It also delivers superior energy recovery even at -13°F, ensuring optimal performance even in harsh conditions all while lowering energy loads and boosting Home Energy Rating System (HERS) scores.
Minimal CFM loss under static pressure means better airflow and energy efficiency.
In hot, humid climates Panasonic's patented Cross-Flow membrane core can reduce inbound moisture loads by as much as 40 percent depending on airflow.
In addition to versatile installation options, the solution has remote operation with an optional Wi-Fi controller.
It complies with ASHRAE Standard 62.2 and has high SRE ratings.
