P R E S S r e l e a s e FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Drummondville, May 20, 2009 — What air exchanger will meet future demands for energy efficiency? As the leader in the air exchange system market, Venmar Ventilation
Inc. stays well informed about current trends. Astute consumers are increasingly concerned about the
environment, energy efficiency and savings. At a time when the green movement is of paramount importance and influences these consumers’ buying decisions, Venmar Ventilation innovates by launching
the completely new EKO. Intended to be the most energy-efficient HRV air exchanger on the market, its innovative design makes optimal performance
in terms of energy recovery possible; while at the same time substantially reduces energy costs. This
exceptional innovation provides an ideal, environmentally friendly solution for residential ventilation,
meeting the expectations of the most discerning consumers. How does the EKO work? By combining its engineering expertise with technological innovations, Venmar Ventilation has been able
to redefine residential ventilation by introducing EKO.
The energy consumption of its highperformance motors can be compared to that of a compact fluorescent light bulb. EKO can thus significantly lower energy costs while maintaining optimal output. Its core
recovers up to 80% of a home’s heat or cool air thanks to its additional energy efficiency. In fact, EKO exceeds energy conservation requirements! The
EKO 1.5 features the following
unique characteristics: 2 German high-performance ECM motors that consume 13.5 watts each (at low speed), which represents 75% less
energy than that consumed by a light bulb; 2.53 CFM/watt, which makes it the industry’s most
efficient HRV air exchanger; 4 settings that adjust the speed to meet the needs
of the home’s occupants with simply the touch of a button; a compact size allowing easy installation when space
is limited; used with the ALTITUDE control, it offers the completely programmable SMART mode feature that takes complete control of the unit, along with an attractive
LCD screen.
EKO is
an ultra-efficient and environmentally friendly
air exchanger, a welcome addition to a line of products designed by a team of experts whose first aim
is consumer well-being. “As a manufacturer, we are very pleased to be able to offer new products
to our consumers, especially during very trying economic times,” mentioned Scott Stevens, Vice-President
of Sales and Marketing for the wholesale network. In fact, in spite of the worldwide economic crisis,
Venmar Ventilation is once again distinguishing itself from other manufacturers by innovating in order
to meet the demands of the air exchanger market.
