I ordered this myself, and it came in two days. Over $100 less than I could find any place else. If you are in the market for a spot ERV, this is a pretty good deal.

It'll "help" in the sense that it won't add more smoke, but it's not really intended to solve air cycling a smoke filled environment — there are far better solutions.

From what I have read, Europe and Asia are well ahead of North America in this area. Maybe because we have really only started building very tight, energy efficient homes for the last decade here.

As someone who recently bought a very expensive new build house, it's incredible how far behind we are. However, that won't change until builders are forced to do so. Else, they will cheap out on the smallest things to save 3 pennies.

If cracking a window open helps your radon then this should help. I got it for radon . Usually I just have basement window open but that doesn't work when I need to dehumidify as well.

I had the home energy squad come to my house. They recommend I have a continuous running bathroom fan for health/safety reasons. Never heard of ERV. Would this be the solution to replace my bathroom have with? Should I have it in all bathrooms or just a few? Thanks!

This isn't a bathroom vent. It's an air exchanger that had an intake and exhaust. It exchanges roughly 20% of the AIR in an average home per day while retaining 80% of it's heat. This are tough numbers but IT'S NOT JUST A BATHROOM VENT

Quote from KingMongo :
One thing to note is that ERV/HRV systems are not particularly useful unless you have an extremely tight vapor envelope on your house. The point of these is to introduce fresh outside air and to recover the heat (HRV) or the enthalpy (ERV) energy so you aren't either (a) letting all your comfy warm air out in winter and introducing cold air, or (b) letting out all your comfy cool air in summer and introducing the hot stuff.

If you have an older sticks and bricks home, you are probably getting complete air exchanges regularly simply from all the leaks through your windows, doors, outlets, vents, etc.

Finally! Was looking for this comment. This guy gets it and knows what he's talking about. Thank you!

If you have radon, I wouldn't want to roll the dice on something like that. A true radon mitigation system usually involves a heavy duty air/vapor barrier installed over the entire homes basement or as close to the ground/slab as possible. Then that is exhausted through a airtight system of pipes 4" pvc and the exhaust. Termination location is critical… should be 15 or 20 feet above the ground (which exceeds the 10 foot minimum height standard). It is also well over 10 feet horizontal distance from any windows or vents to the sides or above including any soffit vents that may be present.
Technically introducing any "fresh" air into the dwelling would "help" with radon but I'd suggest a radon test.

Cool. I didn't even see the new model when I was looking for ERVs. Looks like the new one will do 60 cfm vs 40 for this one. I think 40 will be enough for my garage apartment based on positive reviews for this older unit.

We had a "high end" home builder build our house about 15 years ago and we lived it in for about 10 years. They couldn't have cared less about efficiency and comfort, only how the end product looked at first glance.
