Free energy for home heating and cooling - It's right above your head.
SERVICES
An HRV Healthy Home Ventilation system uses solar energy for heating without the need for a solar panel, all for the running cost of a light bulb.
The key benefits the HRV system delivers Australian home owners and their families, is energy efficient low emission heating and cooling and unparalleled domestic indoor air quality.
Free Heating
HRV makes use of passive heating in the roof cavity by using the roof itself as a giant solar panel in winter. This reduces the ever increasing reliance on artificial heating and cooling appliances by up to 60% which will have a significant impact on the overall household energy consumption and expenditure.
With the use of an HRV much of the work has already been done, thereby significantly reducing their input energy requirements and consequently Green House Gas (GHG) emissions. Existing heating and cooling solutions can be used to supplement or tactically provide additional requirements if needed.
Free Cooling
Have you ever walked into your home in the early evening during summer only to find it is stuffy inside and yet outside it is cooler?
An HRV whole home ventilation system has the ability to flood your home with fresh, filtered, naturally cool air throughout the night. This reduces the need to use artificial cooling appliances which either consume precious water or draw energy contributing to GHG emissions. HRV also has the unique flexibility of operating effectively with windows and doors open or closed, which works well with your lifestyle. A Fresh Living Environment With a constant supply of fresh, purified air to your home, your HRV system increases indoor air quality by removing stagnant recycled air, cooking odours, moisture, indoor and outdoor pollutants and allergens.
Better Health
There is a significant health benefit associated with breathing fresh, filtered air as opposed to stale, dust laden air (EPA Victoria, 2006). With modern building techniques we seal homes tighter and tighter to keep the cold out and the warmth in. In doing so, we compromise indoor air quality and trap moisture in the home ( ASEHA, 2006 ). HRV is the only system of its type in Australia that ventilates homes with a medical grade filter and positive pressure. This minimises dust and pollutants entering the home and ensures homes are flushed with clean, fresh air so families can breathe naturally warmed air on a continuous basis.
Climate Control
The running cost and energy harnessed from an HRV system, along with the air quality delivered, make it a unique and environmentally responsible alternative for creating healthy homes that require less energy to maintain.
Your Biggest Asset
By creating a naturally warmer drier and continuously ventilated environment, mould, mildew and condensation will not occur. The reduction of moisture in any home will drastically reduce the energy it requires to achieve a comfortable living environment.
Excessive moisture increases the deterioration of household items. By creating a naturally warmer, drier well ventilated environment, the life of paint, wallpaper, curtains, carpets, mattresses and window surrounds will be extended. This preventative measure will significantly reduce your ongoing costs to maintain your home and improve the value of your biggest asset.

Solar generated warm filtered air.
While thousands of homeowners are using gas and electric appliances to take the chill out of their homes in Spring, HRV owners are getting their warmth from the sun for the running cost of a light globe.
General Manager Blair Milnes reports ‘we are seeing temperatures in most roof spaces on clear sunny days over 30 degrees when its 15-17degrees outside’. This significantly reduces the requirement to run artificial heating and in many cases eliminates it altogether.
‘The warmth harvested during the day often means customers don’t need to switch on Greenhouse Gas producing appliances during the day or at night, which cost money to operate’ says Milnes.
HRV measures the temperature in the roof and the house and brings the warm air generated by the sun shining on the roof into the house through a medical-grade filter creating a pollen and dust-free environment. Milnes notes that feedback from customers posted on their website highlights the overwhelming importance Australians place on air quality, ‘by creating a clean-air environment, HRV customers are reporting that they get a better nights sleep, use less medication to control asthma and allergies and are having less sick days away from work and school’.
