building system AMVIC ECOAIR™ GROUND-AIR HEAT EXCHANGE SYSTEM THE ENERGY-EFFICIENT FRESH AIR SOLUTION With today's tight building envelopes, it is often necessary to bring in outdoor air to ensure good in- door air quality. A gentle breeze wafting through an open window first comes to mind. It's the symbol of health and comfort, until you realize that fresh air brings with it heat, cold and humidity, which detract from a building's efficiency and introduce allergens into the living environment. The AMVIC ECOAIR ground-air heat exchange system supplies fresh air without these drawbacks. The system takes advantage of the more moderate and relatively constant ground temperatures to pre- condition incoming fresh air, reducing heating and cooling costs. It also filters the air and can lower So, build your energy-efficient, airtight building, and take a breath of fresh air - renewable, preconditioned fresh air from AMVIC ECOAIR.

GROUND-AIR HEAT EXCHANGE capitalizing on the earth’s energy Controlled ventilation is becoming a necessity in modern, airtight buildings to ensure good indoor air quality. By taking advantage of the earth’s energy, a ground-air heat exchange system enhances the efficiency of a building’s fresh air ventilation system. Geothermal Energy Reduces Heating and Cooling Costs At 5 to 7 ft (1.5 to 2 m) below the earth’s surface, ground temperatures remain relatively constant throughout the year. As incoming air passes through the underground pipes, it is pre-warmed with ground heat in winter and pre-cooled...

a SILVER LINING INHIBITing microbial GROWTH During the cooling season, condensation can occur in the ground-air heat exchange pipes in regions with high humidity. This moist environment can be conducive to microbial growth. To grow, microbes require moisture and a food source. The first defense against microbial growth is removing the moisture through proper condensation management. Effectively removing particles from the incoming air – the food source – is the next most important safeguard. The complete AMVIC ECOAIR system provides for both condensate drainage and inlet-air filtration. In addition,...
