NovelAire also is an OEM Manufacture of Energy Recovery Wheels using Molecular Sieve Technology.
Lower price wheels use a plastic material impregnated with a silica gel which will absorb the water vapor from the air and will expel the water with the force of an exhaust fan and the vapor pressure difference between the air paths. While this type of wheel is “fine” and well proven, its performance is inferior to the molecular sieve and there is a chance of smells transferring from the outside air inlet to the exhaust air outlet.
The molecular sieve uses a 4Å slit which allows only the water vapor to pass through. The material of the wheel itself is aluminium which is lightweight but more sturdy than the plastic wheel. The wheel rotor shall be constructed of alternating layers of flat and corrugated media.
We can offer a full cartridge including the wheel and drive to install in a new, retrofit or replacement HVAC Unit. If its a tight rig, we can offer the unit to ship in sections.
We can also offer full AHUs and Packaged units with wheels
