Whole House ERV
WhisperComfort is also suitable to meet whole house ventilation
requirements under ASHRAE 62.2. WhisperComfort is an ideal
choice when partnered with mini-splits or VRF Heat Pumps for
fresh, balanced air with energy recovery which makes it a very
affordable, cost-effective IAQ solution. The sizing charts on the
next page provide a guideline for number of bedrooms and square
feet. Additionally, two or even three WhisperComfort ERV’s may be
installed, often at a cost lower than a traditional whole house ERV.
Ideal for: Condominiums / Apartments / Housing Authority
properties / Hotels / Studio apartments
ASHRAE 62.2 Standard
The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE) set a standard for whole house ventilation,
requiring that continuous mechanical ventilation be 7.5 CFM per
bedroom (master bedroom X 2) plus 1 CFM per 100 square feet, with
sone not to exceed 1.0. ASHRAE 62.2-2013 requires a ventilation
rate of 7.5 CFM per person plus 3 CFM per 100 square feet. Please
check with your local code to determine which ventilation standard
you should follow. Panasonic WhisperComfort ERV is an affordable,
efficient way to meet the ASHRAE 62.2 standard.

Balanced Ventilation
Tightly built homes and buildings utilizing exhaust only fans can create negative
pressure. WhisperComfort solves this by supplying air to replace exhausted air,
helping to balance air pressure within the home.
Panasonic WhisperComfort Spot ERV uses two 4 inch ducts – one to exhaust
stale air and the other to supply fresh air from outdoors. Its low, continuous run
ensures volatile organic compounds (VOC’s) are vented out and replaced with
fresh air.
WhisperComfort does not require connection to the Central HVAC or the addition
of a condensation line. This 'Spot' ERV feature
allows it to be installed in many places throughout the home to meet comfort,
health and IAQ needs.
Exchange Capillary Core
Indoor and outdoor air passes through Panasonic’s patented capillary
core technology designed to transfer heat energy and moisture. This process
tempers supply air while transferring moisture.
Motor Technology
Panasonic uses a single AC condenser motor to run two highly efficient blower
wheels. The motor is totally enclosed to ensure long-life and continuous quiet
operation.
Filters
Two filters clean exhaust and supply air before passing through
the ERV core, extending the life of the core.
Grille Design
The contemporary, low profile grille design incorporates spring
clips for easy removal.
Spot ERV
WhisperComfort is a ceiling or wall-mount Energy Recovery
Ventilator (ERV) that is ideal for a single large, open space room or for multistory
homes' hallways. Two or even three WhisperComfort
ERV's may be installed, often at a cost lower than a traditional whole building
ERV that requires connecting to the Central HVAC System.
Ideal for: Home Office / Game Rooms / Family Rooms / Bonus Rooms
This is an affordable way to add ERV to a specific room or a new addition.
