Operating Costs/BenefitsOperating Costs/Benefits
CostsIncreased maintenance (filters, coil/core cleaning, motor, bearings)
BenefitsReduced cycling due to smaller AC unit size for improved temperature and humidity control
No real humidity benefits from moisture transfer – it is the cooling system that removes the moisture
Reduced cooling and heating loadsOffset partly by added fan energyNet savings varies by application, design, and climate

Summary & TipsSummary & Tips
Usually the optimum Energy Recovery type is:Enthalpy Wheel in humid climates & cold climates with humidificationFlat Plat or Run-around for hot dry climates and no humidification No heat recovery in mild climates
Use ARI Certified products onlyEnsures fair playing field, realistic load reduction estimates
Keep pressure drops low to minimize fan energy lossesOnly apply to minimum outdoor air
Bypass HX for economizer outdoor air Take credit for reduced loads in heating/cooling equipment sizing
Necessary for cost effectiveness and control benefitsDetermine savings using annual energy program of actual system application
Manufacturer’s programs are often over-simplified and favor recovery
