We are Building Performance Equipment, Inc....

Sustainability means meeting present needs without compromising our future generations' ability to meet theirs. Since 1997, BPE has engineered energy recovery ventilation systems that reduce energy consumption while improving indoor air quality in homes, workplaces, and industrial complexes. Our technology also preconditions air sustainably, ensuring thermal comfort regardless of outdoor temperatures. 


BPE technology has facilitated thousands of HV AC and Dedicated Outdoor Air System installs, resulting in high-efficiency and Net-Zero homes, buildings, and industrial structures.

  

By placing energy recovery at the heart of its products, BPE does its part--and helps you do yours--to curb the building industry's carbon footprint.


Our company works with you to provide components and complete turnkey systems via high-efficiency energy recovery modules and fans, ductwork, as well as controls. And move BPE heat exchangers raise the bar with thermal efficiencies of 70% to 90+% and energy efficiency ratings (EER) from 36 to over 126. (Much of the industry averages 10).


Our clients find our patented technology serves their needs while remaining inexpensive to own and operate. We are particularly passionate about working with clients to solve unique problems others can not address.


BPE serves all of North America, Latin America, and other world markets.

What our Clients Say...

Chanel Perfumes

O'Dell Associates - Chrysalis Yoga

O'Dell Associates - Chrysalis Yoga

 Juoko Tahvanainen, Plant Engineering Manager at Chanel, states there has been a dramatic improvement in comfort accompanied by “some nice energy savings as well.” Mr. Tahvanainen explained that the measurements taken on the exhaust and intake air look very promising. Scott Reilly, Director of Engineering at the facility, said, “We run a tight ship around here, and the BPE units are maintenance free.”

 John from O’Dell Associates – working with Excel Heating on system design and installation – states, “By using state of the art BPE energy recovery modules, we can save Chrysalis $1,000 a month and pre-heat the cold outdoor air to 92°F. It makes the Yoga studio more comfortable and saves a lot of energy and money.” Installer Andrew stated, “The BPE units were light enough to install without a crane and saved on installation costs. The BPE-XE-MIR-2000 units precondition the outside air while improving IAQ and reduce operating costs.” 

Hopewell, NJ School District

O'Dell Associates - Chrysalis Yoga

Hopewell, NJ School District

 Haglid Engineering provided P4P incentives and engineering support for energy savings and an Energy Star Building Rating! Norman Torkelson, Director of Facilities at the Hopewell Valley Regional Schools and 2008 Recipient of the NJ Clean Energy Educator of the Year, states: “By applying energy recovery technology(s) to our older buildings, the energy savings alone justify the installation of a BPE unit. Additional benefits, including improved thermal comfort and indoor air quality as well as reduced operation and maintenance costs, create a positive initiative to install more BPE units!” 

Our Yoga Place Hot Yoga

Bourbon BBQ, Wyckoff, NJ

Hopewell, NJ School District

 Tom Palmer, owner of Our Yoga Place, says their BPE ERV makes the studio air quality so fresh that it amazes him how many clients leave class saying, “I’ve never come out of a class feeling so good before!”

“The built up energy recovery ventilation (ERV) system was designed and selected for very low fan energy and high heat recovery effectiveness. The ECM fans provide 100% outdoor air ventilation at less than 0.75 W/cfm. The ERV system needs only small (inexpensive) ducts to deliver air directly to all habitable spaces while continuously exhausting stale air from specific high pollution locations (conference rooms, large offices, restrooms, kitchen, copy room, janitor, server room) during occupied hours. The apparent sensible heat recovery effectiveness of the ERV is greater than 86%. This allowed the elimination of a reheat system in the ventilation supply airstream. Even at design day temperatures (24°F [–4°C]), the ERV delivery temperature is in the 60s.” - Shawn Oram, P.E., Associate Member of ASHRAE 

Marty's Cycle Shop

 BPE provided Marty’s with LEEDs support, resulting in a LEED Silver Rating, improved occupancy comfort, energy efficiency, and an EPA Energy Star Rating! “As one of the leaders of sustainability in Morristown, I believe that sustainability is good for business. To prove this, I decided to renovate and achieve a LEED certification. The result has been amazing. Many people just appreciate the fact that I invested in the neighborhood and the Town of Morristown. The LEED certification has not only helped our bottom line costs but has helped in creating more sales and customer loyalty.” 

American Institute Architects

 James Philip Wright, AIA speaking about the Saskatchewan Conservation House: “It is my opinion that the quickest and easiest way to approach net zero is to use a direct counter-flow energy recovery unit with over 90% efficiency…Only BPE units represent the counter-flow heat exchanger created for the first passive house.”
