Case Studies - BPE Energy Recovery Products in Action

---

Revisit an ERV installation at Woodstock Infusions Pilates and Hot Yoga one year later. This case study asks, Has the

BPE-XE-MIR-2000 served its purpose under the pressure of a full schedule of classes?

 A BPE Energy Recovery Ventilator system meets the  challenges of maintaining a healthy environment in a hot yoga studio. Such spaces are typically heated to 105°F with at least 40% relative humidity.

To improve staff health and comfort--without increasing energy bills, HVAC Systems implemented over 94% sensible thermal efficiency by using a BPE Energy Recovery Ventilator system.

To prevent damage to CNC systems from high humidity, BPE designed a solution using its patented Regenerative Condensate Return™ technology, which offers up to 34% latent effectiveness .

With BPE's energy recovery ventilators, and other energy-saving equipment, this facility’s energy consumption decreased by 26.7%. Lower energy bills allow for more money spent on learning.

 One high-performance BPE ERV allows Grateful Heads to meet and exceed ASHRAE Standard 62.1 Ventilation Rates for Acceptable indoor air quality--not always easy in a salon,

 Building Performance Equipment, Inc. placed two BPE-XE-MIR-3000 ERV units into this Massachusetts machine shop to  prevent exposing occupants to chemicals and excessive humidity.

 Two BPE-XE-MIR-2000s and one BPE-XE-MIR-200 contributed to opening a healthy hot yoga environment despite the pandemic going on at the time.  BPE Regenerative Condensate Return also controlled humidity.

Four BPE-MIR-XE-2000 cfm high-efficiency, air-to-air, direct counter-flow heat exchangers came to the rescue when energy rates soared. The ERV system improved comfort and lowered energy bills.

Designing a ventilation system that can meet the requirements of a community center with drastically different interior spaces ca be challenging. Especially when it has to be highly energy efficient and green.

BPE ERV technology went into retrofits for thirteen classrooms, resulting in the recapturing of up to 80 to 95 percent of the thermal energy typically exhausted from an average classroom.

 Four BPE-XE-MIR-2000 ERVs performed with an Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) of 27 (cooling) and a Seasonal EER of nearly 73 (heating) – far beyond the efficiency of standard  rooftop unitary equipment. 

Two BPE-XE-MIR-2000 ERV heat exchangers bring winter air into this indoor Olympic 

pool natatorium to banish poor IAQ while heating that air to a  comfortable 75°F through heat energy recovery.
