Your Heat Recovery Ventilation system is the lung of your home and it requires regular maintenance. The good news is that it takes only a few easy steps to do it.
First check the air intake to make sure it is clear of debris.
Open the door on the HRV unit (door is removable), the core and filters should be easy to remove.
Pay attention to how they come out to ensure they go back in the same position.
To clean the core filter, remove and vacuum all four sides, submerge in warm mild soapy water for 3 hours. Rinse and let completely dry before reinstalling.
Screen filters can also be vacuumed or washed if necessary.
We recommend cleaning the screen filters every 3 months, and the core every 6 months, at the least.
