The Heat Recovery Ventilation (HRV) system off ered by Bryant
is the finest unit on the market today.
The HRVB provides efficient and cost-effective heat recovery
during the heating season when needed most.
As temperatures drop below 23°F (–5°C), indoor air is
recirculated periodically through the heat exchanger core to
prevent frost from forming. Competitors’ methods of
supplementary electric defrost waste energy. Unlike rotary
wheel heat exchangers which mix air streams, these cross flow
or counterflow heat exchangers ensure that there is no mixing
of the stale air stream with the fresh outdoor air stream.
A filter installed on the incoming outdoor air stream removes
large airborne particles from the intake air stream before they
enter the heat exchanger and reduces the maintenance
required.
The units’ acoustically engineered design makes them the
quietest on the market and ensures that comfort is felt, not
heard.
Unlatching 2 suitcase style latches allows easy removal of the
filters and core for cleaning.

CONTROL FEATURES
Basic Control: Allows the user to manually set fan speed to low or high as required to maximize comfort.
Standard Control: Offers automatic dehumidistat control and the option to select continuous or intermittent fan
operation. Setting the wall control to low will activate the continuous mode.
Automatic Control: In addition to the features found with standard control, this package offers a recirculation mode.
These controls may only be used to operate stand-alone units with the defrost option which enables the recirculation
feature.

CONTROL DESCRIPTION AND USAGE
Fan Speed Control — Enables user to modulate fan speed from low to high air exchange with outside.
Dehumidistat Control — Allows the user to select the relative humidity le v el at which the unit would change f an speed
for dehumidification in the winter months.
Continuous Mode — If the relative humidity inside the building is lower than selected, air exchange occurs with the
outside at low speed. If the relative humidity inside the house is higher than selected, air exchange occurs with the
outside at high speed. Ensures continuous air exchange for constant air quality.
Intermittent Mode — If the relative humidity inside the building is low er than selected, no air exchange occurs and the
system turns off. If the relative humidity inside the house is higher than selected, air exchange occurs with the outside
at high speed. Ensures minimum air exchange level when the building is unoccupied to minimize operating costs.
Circulation Mode — If the relative humidity inside the building is low er than selected, the ambient air would be circulated
and filtered at high speed. If the relativ e humidity inside the house is higher than selected, air exchange would occur with
the outside at high speed. Ensures continuous movement and filtration of air for maximum comfort. Available with
automatic control only.
AUTOMATIC DEFROST CYCLE FEATURES
All models offer a non-electric defrost cycle feature which prevents frost and ice buildup within the heat recovery core.
When the outside air temperature falls below 23°F (–5°C) it is electronically sensed and the dampers close the outside
air ports. This allows warm indoor air to recirculate within the heat recovery core. The frequency of this cycle increases
as the outside air temperature decreases.

The cooling load chart shows loads in Btuh as well. To use the cooling load chart, first find the design enthalpy from a
psychrometric chart using the design dry bulb and wet bulb temperatures. (See psychrometric chart on p. 11.) The
cooling load can then be found for a range of enthalpies for each ventilator.
EXAMPLE: The cooling design dry bulb temperature for Milwaukee, WI is 87°F and the average wet bulb at that
temperature is 73°F. On the psychrometric chart the enthalpy is about 37.7 Btu/lb of dry air which will round
up to 38 Btu/lb of dry air. In the left column, at 38 Btu/lb the HRVBBLHU1250 would have an additional
cooling load of 6428 Btuh. This additional load should be taken into account when sizing the air cooling
equipment.
