The key to healthy Indoor Air Quality is maintaining a controlled supply of fresh clean air. In most cases, this requires both mechanical ventilation and filtration. And while there are several systems you can install, there is only one that offers all of the advanced features of RecoupAerator.
RecoupAerator has been successfully installed in hot, cold, dry and humid climates throughout the world with outstanding results.
RecoupAerator is a whole-house Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) that exchanges the stale air of an average-sized home with clean fresh air about once every two hours. It provides both ventilation and filtration, capturing pollens and mold spores before fresh air is released in to the home. This makes the RecoupAerator uniquely suited for asthmatics and allergy sufferers. RecoupAerator also removes the many contaminants created from inside the home.
The RecoupAerator controls temperature and humidity in such way that it keeps mold spores and dust mites from surviving and multiplying. The 200DX also features a wide variety of external indoor air quality control devices including EconoCool and frost prevention, making it the smartest unit around.
Another important feature of RecoupAerator is that the air stream is automatically balanced so you never have to worry about making seasonal adjustments.
How it works
RecoupAerator is connected to the duct work of your HVAC system. Equipped with two fans, one fan draws fresh air into the building while the other pushes stale air out. As the two air streams cross, they pass through the patented heat exchanger that transfers both heat and moisture from one air stream to another. In other words, the heat from the air being exhausted is transferred to the fresh inbound air.
As outside air enters RecoupAerator, it’s also forced through a MERV 12 filter to capture incoming contaminants. After passing through the patented heat exchanger, the warmed or cooled fresh air is distributed through the house through the existing HVAC duct work. About 95% of the heat energy from the outbound stale air is transferred to the incoming air flow. This creates incoming air temperature closer to the temperature already inside the home, therefore requiring less energy to condition the new air. This process is why RecoupAerator is the least expensive ERV to own and operate.

Standard Features
The 200DX is the ONLY system available with all these standard features:
Self-balancing – air flow and pressure are automatically balanced
EconoCool™ – brings in cool filtered night air in summer – A/C unit required less often
Brushless motor technology – performs as quietly and efficiently as possible
MERV 12 filtration – filters particles as small as 3.5 microns
Filter Alert – automatically signals you when it’s time for a filter change
Self-adjusting fan speed – fluid range of speed to perfectly matches air flow requirements, not just one or two speeds
Optional Features
Several options are available to customize your system to your exact needs.
CO2 Guard™ – senses and adjusts for increased levels of CO2 to keep your family safe
Dual Function Timer – override fan speed for short periods of time
WarmFlo Defrost – pre-heats incoming air
HEPA filtration – filters 99.97% of all dust and allergens as small as 0.3 microns
Pressure Guard™ – senses and adjusts for changes in indoor air pressure
Dehumidistat – automatically balances humidity to control mold growth and keep the environment comfortable
WarmFlo is a high-efficiency defrost system which can be installed with your new RecoupAerator unit or added in the future. The WarmFlo system is recommended when outdoor temperatures reach 10°F for extended periods of time. Pre-Heater warms incoming air before it reaches the RecoupAerator.
WarmFlo Post Heater delivers additional heat into the ducted space using air flow from the RecoupAerator fan - an excellent solution to heat poorly insulated areas.
The 12” Water to Air Coil Module is designed for use as a heating or cooling, fluid to air heat exchanger that can be placed before or after the ERV in the incoming fresh air stream. When installed before the ventilation unit, the module acts as a pre heater or cooler (and dehumidifier) before the air enters the ventilator. When installed after the ERV, the module can be used to heat or cool the space.
This timer is used to boost RecoupAerator to high speed for a set amount of time, or for cycling your RecoupAerator on and off at different timed intervals such as peak shower periods or while cooking.
PressureGuard® continuously monitors and automatically adjusts airflow to maintain the selected indoor to outdoor pressure differential. A home that becomes depressurized is more susceptible to moisture and build up of gases.
The Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Sensor Switch automatically boosts RecoupAerator to high speed to bring in more fresh air when CO2 levels become elevated. This switch must be installed in a location where carbon dioxide levels may be a concern, such as areas where people gather or where a significant time is spent.
Dehumidistat measures and controls room temperature and humidity. The Perfect Climate Comfort Center™ is the first home control to integrate temperature, humidity, ventilation, filtration, circulation and zoning.
The Ceiling Mount Kit comes with all the necessary hardware to suspend your RecoupAerator 12” below an overhead mounting surface (typically floor joists).
The Wall Termination Kit sets includes vent hoods (2) and dampers (2). The hoods are fabricated aluminum, with 1/8” screen mesh, and barometric butterfly dampers as a separate piece. Both 6” and 8” kits are available with custom sizes also available.
Seiho Diffusers and Hoods Residential diffusers and hoods for interior and exterior intake and exhaust.
