Panasonic, a leading producer of ventilation and healthy indoor living solutions for the building industry, today introduced the WhisperComfort 60 Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV).
The new addition to Panasonic’s ERV series is HVI certified for energy recovery and sound, demonstrating the company’s commitment to providing whole-house ventilation in an energy efficient and cost-effective manner.
The new ERV is ideal for new construction or remodeling projects in single or multi-family houses, providing tempered fresh air supply and balanced exhaust air flow to maintain neutral pressure throughout the residence. The ERV can be wall or ceiling mounted, with 4″ or 5″ ducts and static pressure ports for airflow verification to meet ASHRAE 62.2 standards. The WhisperComfort 60 is designed for easy installation and usage, with the following features:
- The multi-speed selection (20 to 50 CFM) allows for adjustable airflow, and the occupant-controllable Boost function can increase fan speed to 60 CFM when enabled.
- Two powerful DC (Direct Current) Panasonic ECM motors provide silent and efficient airflow, while MERV 13 changeable filters ensure outstanding air filtering.
- The high-efficiency capillary core recovers heat and helps to maintain the correct moisture levels inside the home.
- The WhisperVent Wall Cap enables supply and exhaust air through a single building penetration up to 100 CFM per side.
“The new WhisperComfort 60 is engineered for total versatility and installation flexibility in any climate zone. The new system allows you to simply design and specify your ventilation system requirements, improve indoor air quality, and reduce ventilation costs on new construction or remodeling projects,” remarked Donald West, Product Manager, IAQ Division, Panasonic Corporation of North America. “We’re extremely excited to introduce this new solution to builders and contractors to make achieving higher indoor air quality easier and more accessible for their customers.”
