Aprilaire Thermostat Intro
Wednesday, January 18th, 2012Aprilaire Humidity Control
Tuesday, January 17th, 2012Your Aprilaire Humidifier shares your home’s relative humidity level with the system which allows the Model 6504 Panel to extend blower operation at the end of a heat call if the humidity set point was not reached during the call. When installed with an Aprilaire Energy Recovery Ventilator or an Aprilaire Ventilation Damper, the Model 6504 Panel will ensure the right quantity and quality of fresh air critical for your home’s comfort. The system can be set to circulate air periodically to extend air cleaner and humidifier performance.

Better Temperature Control
Friday, January 6th, 2012It can be very difficult to keep every room in a home at a comfortable temperature. Heat rises upstairs, leaving the main floor cool and second floor bedrooms hot. Cool air settles into the basement. Windows to the south soak up the sun, while harsh winds cool the north side of the house.
Add some of today’s most desired home design features, and the problem gets worse. Large glass expanses, cathedral ceilings, solariums, lofts – they all can cause temperatures to vary dramatically from one part of a house to the next. Expecting one thermostat in a single room to control all this is asking the impossible.
Aprilaire Ventilator Working
Thursday, January 5th, 2012The Aprilaire Energy Recovery Ventilator makes use of your home’s existing heating or air-conditioning duct system to distribute fresh air throughout your home. The outgoing polluted air stream and the incoming fresh air stream both pass through the exclusive Energy-Max Transfer Core. The air then passes by each other separated by thin walls that allow only the air’s energy to be transferred, cutting your heating and cooling bills.
Recovery Ventilator Solution
Wednesday, January 4th, 2012The aprilaire energy recovery ventilator was developed using the concept of a mechanical device know as an air-to-air heat exchanger, or a heat recovery ventilator. In simple terms, it exchanges stale, polluted indoor air for fresh outdoor air with minimal energy loss.

Air Quality Improvement
Monday, January 2nd, 2012Experts now recognize the critical importance of improving indoor air quality without using excessive amounts of energy. The EPA, the National Association of Home Builders and many local building codes recommend adequate ventilation in homes. That means bringing the outside air in. But how do you do that without sacrificing your home’s energy efficiency? More and more builders, heating contractors, as well as health-conscious homeowners are discovering the perfect solution: the Aprilaire Energy Recovery Ventilator.
Poor Air Quality Causes
Saturday, December 31st, 2011In an effort to save energy costs, new homes are being better sealed to prevent indoor air from escaping. Energy efficient windows and doors with double weather stripping are being installed in both new homes and older homes that are being remodeled. Insulation is thicker and the use of air-tight vapor barriers is more prevalent. Better caulk is sealing up cracks and other potential air leaks. While all this has made many homes more efficient, saving both energy and money, it has also made it nearly impossible for these homes to “breathe” – to expel stale, polluted indoor air and exchange it for cleaner, fresher outdoor air.
