Intelli-Balance® Elite ERV - Temperate Climate
The Intelli-Balance® Elite Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) series is ideal for multifamily units and new home build constructions. They are customizable, delivering high energy recovery performance achieving up to 89% SRE, designed to meet current Building Code standards. These unique and cost-effective ERVs have been engineered for total versatility and installation flexibility in temperate climate zones. The occupant-controlled boost function can move the ERV fan speed to maximum CFM when activated.
- All models can be adjusted for mirror installation and are equipped with a standard power cord and a hardwire adaptor kit
- Two (2) powerful ECM motors with Smart Flow® technology ensure optimum CFM output by overcoming static pressure to effectively remove contaminated air and replace with fresh air
- Multi-speed selector (30 to 110 CFM, 30 to 140 CFM) provides customizable airflow to create balanced, positive or negative pressure within the home
- Two (2) MERV 13 filters included, optional MERV 6 (washable) and MERV 13 replacements available
- Optional Accessories: Touch screen LED wall control (FV-SC16VEC1) allows for CFM selection, occupant controllable boost function, and status/error updates (FID). Wi-Fi control works with phone app. WhisperControl™ Low Voltage Timer (FV-SWLV1060) allows for instant boost at the touch of a button

Balanced Ventilation
In tightly built homes and buildings, using exhaust-only fans can create negative pressure. Panasonic Intelli-Balance® ERVs prevent this by supplying fresh air to replace exhausted air, maintaining balanced indoor air pressure. Each unit is designed with four dedicated 6” duct connections: one draws in fresh air from outside, one delivers that fresh air into the living space, one pulls stale indoor air back into the unit, and one exhausts that stale air outside. Operating continuously at a low rate, Intelli-Balance® ERVs remove stale air while introducing clean, fresh air. With flexible installation options—ceiling, floor, or wall mounted—they can work independently or in conjunction with an HVAC system, making them ideal for placement throughout the home to meet IAQ and comfort requirements.
ECM Motor Technology
Multi-Speed Selector
Intelli-Balance® ERVs include a built-in, digital, multi-speed selector that provides the ability to select the required supply and exhaust airflow based on the model (30-110, or 30-140 CFM) with a simple press of a button. This truly customizable airflow capability creates balanced, positive or negative pressure within the home.

Operation in Cold Temperatures
Two temperate models are recommended for areas where temperatures do not often fall below -10°C (14°F). Below this temperature, the outside damper closes, and the unit goes into a standby mode to prevent freezing of the core.
