Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) — Operating Principle
A recuperator (heat recovery unit) transfers heat from exhaust air to incoming fresh air without mixing the two streams.
---
How It Works
Two airflows:
Exhaust air (warm, from indoors)
Supply air (cold, from outside)
They pass through a heat exchanger:
separated by plates or channels
no direct mixing
heat transfers through the material (conduction)
Result: → supply air is preheated
→ exhaust air is cooled
→ overall heat loss is reduced---
Types of Recuperators
1. Plate Heat Exchanger
aluminum or plastic plates
efficiency: ~60–90%
no moving parts
2. Rotary (Wheel) Heat Exchanger
rotating drum
transfers heat and some moisture
efficiency: up to ~85–90%
3. Counterflow Heat Exchanger
air streams move in opposite directions
highest efficiency: up to ~95%
---
What Is Transferred
heat (primary)
sometimes moisture (in enthalpy units)
---
Efficiency Example
outside: 0°C
indoor: +22°C
after recovery: ~16–20°C
---
Advantages
reduced heating energy demand
continuous ventilation without major heat loss
improved indoor air quality
---
Limitations
frost formation in winter (needs bypass or preheater)
filter maintenance required
upfront cost
---
Core Idea
A recuperator doesn’t generate heat — it recovers and reuses it.

A metal awning over the front door helps block sun, deflect rain, and protect the entry from daily exposure.
It’s a small addition that improves comfort and helps reduce long-term wear on exterior materials.

Winter heating costs getting out of hand? 🥶
Heat Recovery Ventilation captures heat from extracted air and transfers it to fresh incoming air.
✓ Reduces money spent on heating costs
✓ Fresh, healthy indoor air
✓ Prevents condensation and mould
✓ Reduces carbon footprint
It's a win for your wallet and home's health.

CW: toilet logistics (adding a bidet)
Recently I finally got off my ass (pun intended) and started seriously investigating adding a bidet seat to one of our toilets.
I was going to save time and energy by buying the fanciest model available at #Costco, but it won't fit our toilet because of a raised contour at the back of the bowl. It took me three email exchanges with #Kohler to extract that information.
Now I'm exchanging email with #Brondell to see if theirs will fit.

So, this genius thinks sabotaging a landlord's boiler with illegal radio signals is the new DIY home improvement trend. 🚫📡 Nothing screams "responsible adult" like inviting the FCC to your housewarming party! 🤦♂️🔧

Installed a cat door today. Except now it’s a bizarre, art-deco skylight, and the cat is still on the wrong side. At this point, I’m questioning every life choice that led me here.
