Indoor Swimming Pool with Venmar HRV 600i

Swimming Pools

Indoor swimming pools continuously produce large quantities of chlorine laden water vapour through the process of pool water evaporation. The effects of this evaporation are magnified by the fact that the construction industry keeps building more energy efficient tighter structures. When water vapour has no escape from these air tight structures, it causes numerous problems such as:

rust,
blistering of paint,
deterioration of structural supports
and many other negative comestic effects
on your building.

As a result repair or replacement of damaged items can be very costly and time consuming. Patrons and staff of indoor pools must also endure an unpleasant environment. They are surrounded in the physical discomfort of high humidity. The mould, mildew,

bacteria and fungi that grow in these moist conditions
can effect their health. These growths give off low molecular molecular weight volatile organic compounds (VOCs) many of which are poisonous and have potent odours.

So, the solution comes in finding a way to remove the moisture from the indoor environment. By using a Venmar Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) humidity and all other problems and discomfort associated with it are eliminated. The added bonus of the HRV compared to conventional dehumidification is that fresh air is constantly being brought into the building.

How You Can Save

The need for adequate ventilation to improve health and productivity at home or in the work place is becoming more understood. The process of ventilation means bringing much larger quantities of outside air into a building. This air needs to be treated through processes of heating and cooling. If it is treated with conventional systems, operating costs will rise dramatically.

By using a Venmar Heat Recovery Ventilation HRV system, you can reduce these costs by up to 70%. Venmar offers this cost-effective solution due to the system design which recovers energy and condensate from the exhaust airstream. The energy is transferred to the supply fresh air stream and the condensate is returned to the pool. With conventional systems this energy and condensate would be lost. Therefore, it is more cost-effective to dehumidify and use energy recovery than dehumidifying without energy recovery.
