Ventilation has never been more important

Ventilation has never been more important Americans are building ever tighter and more energy-efficient homes. But without proper ventilation your energy-efficient home can trap contaminants inside contaminants that you and your family breathe in every day. Over the past 20 or so years: Asthma rates have risen 75% Radon has risen to account for 12% of all lung cancer deaths Chronic sinusitis has tripled Mold-related lawsuits have risen from 0 to 10,000+ and We ve tightly insulated our homes to save energy Coincidences? Probably not. The EPA reports that the air inside your home can be up to 100 times more polluted than the air outside. You spend 90% of your time indoors, and most of that is spent in your own home. The typical home off-gasses formaldehyde and other carcinogens from construction material and furnishings. The typical home also traps fumes from household chemicals, electronic components, and tracked-in pesticides and insecticides. Just breathing in and out can produce dangerous levels of CO 2 for families and those who exercise in the home. Poor indoor air quality (IAQ) is linked to fatigue, nausea, nervous system maladies, respiratory illness, cancer, and birth defects.

All three are persistent organic pollutants, meaning they can remain in the environment for many years if not diluted. 2 5 6 2 3 5 6 1 2 5 6 4 In a typical home, many elements conspire to significantly degrade indoor air quality... 1 Moisture/humidity 2 Carbon dioxide 2 3 5 1 2 3 4 5 6 3 4 Pollen/household dust Household chemicals/toxins 1 2 3 4 5 7 1 2 3 5 6 7 5 6 Odors Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) 7 Radon

Upon first contact with Stirling Technology I knew I was dealing with a company that actually cares about its products and the people who use them. Replacing my old unit with the RecoupAerator was no problem at all, and I could tell right away that your equipment is made to a higher standard. Now, after six months, I want you to know that I couldn t be happier your ERV does everything my old unit did, only better and quieter. When I build my new home, I will be installing a system from Stirling Technology. J OHN A. FURBUSH Rehoboth Beach, DE I have chronic asthma and allergies, live in an older rental house, and had been noticing a stale feeling in the bedroom. Within an hour of installing your RecoupAerator I noticed a difference. I have more energy and the air is not so dry. It's been just fantastic. AMBER H OLMES Minneapolis, MN The RecoupAerator exchanges all of the air in your home with fresh, filtered air every two hours or so, depending on the airflow you select. This exchange of air dilutes chemicals and exhausts particulates you d otherwise breathe in. With ventilation, you boost your family s health and well-being. Why take chances? Breathe easy with the UltimateAir RecoupAerator. We initially got a RecoupAerator because there was an air quality problem in the house. My daughter Caitlyn, who's only three, developed asthma as a baby. So I called up the Ohio Lung Association, who sent me to your site. There, I saw your chart comparing the RecoupAerator to other units, and that convinced me. It's been two months and Caitlyn hasn't had any problems. Actually, all of us are sleeping better. It's also nice to have the variable speed your unit has and the high efficiency. It's as cheap as running a couple of light bulbs. D AN A ULD Columbus, OH

The RecoupAerator exchanges stale air for fresh Regardless of season, your RecoupAerator exhausts stale air and replaces it with fresh air. To maintain comfort, the RecoupAerator transfers heat and moisture from the outgoing air stream to the incoming air stream. A perfect fit in any home The RecoupAerator installs in any home, whether you have forced-air heating and cooling or an unducted system such as radiant heat flooring.you can mount it on the floor, wall, or ceiling and you can connect it to virtually any and all external controllers, such as bathroom or kitchen fan timers, dehumidistats, and other devices. The UltimateAir RecoupAerator 200DX The RecoupAerator, an energy recovery ventilator (ERV), continuously ventilates your home, exhausting pollutants and replacing stale air with fresh, filtered air. The RecoupAerator maintains comfort by transferring temperature and moisture from your home s outgoing air stream to the incoming air stream. Maintaining temperature and humidity also preserves the life of your home and furnishings. With EconoCool, the RecoupAerator brings cool air into your home in the summer whenever temperatures outside are lower than inside, saving you on cooling bills. Our heat transfer material acts as a highly efficient filter, trapping 95% of all particulates, including pollens and bacteria, down to 5 microns. Breakthrough design The RecoupAerator s breakthrough design means that your home actually resists mold and mildew, as well as gases such as radon. That s because every unit has a built-in pressure offset switch that can be set to slightly pressurize your home. (Most houses that develop mold, for instance, are negatively pressurized therefore inviting moisture into the walls and creating an environment favorable to mold.) A house that has a balanced or slightly positive pressure helps keep moisture and gases at bay. Because indoor air pressure often changes relative to outdoor air pressure and as a result of activities inside the home (e.g., cooking, laundry, and bathroom exhaust fans), the RecoupAerator optionally samples indoor and outdoor air pressure and adjusts to ensure that your home is properly pressurized to prevent moisture and other contaminants from entering your home. With the optional CO 2 monitor, the RecoupAerator automatically senses peaks in carbon dioxide levels (when you re entertaining, for instance) and adjusts its dilution rate accordingly. Easy to maintain The RecoupAerator is a smart appliance that s owner maintainable you control the speed and you can wash and replace the filters yourself. With the RecoupAerator, you also save on electricity over other energy recovery ventilators. The most energy-efficient system you can buy, hands down The RecoupAerator runs on the equivalent of a 100-watt light bulb in normal usage (in fact, the RecoupAerator is the only ERV qualified to earn the Oregon Department of Energy s coveted top energy efficiency tax credit). Self-balancing In addition, the RecoupAerator is the only energy recovery ventilator that maintains balanced airflow under any condition. If your vents or filters become partially blocked, the RecoupAerator still delivers the same amount of fresh air to your home. Good for all homes Any home, no matter what its age, benefits from the UltimateAir RecoupAerator even older leaky homes that have what we call natural ventilation, which is seasonal and dependent on wind and weather. Only a mechanical ventilation system like the RecoupAerator consistently exchanges stale air for fresh air year-round and provides high-level filtration.
