Bring fresh air indoors while pushing out contaminants (mold, bacteria, pollen, allergens, harmful chemicals, odors, VOCs) and stale air with the Aprilaire Fresh Ventilator 8145. Designed for energy-efficient homes up to 7,500-square feet, this fresh air ventilator is great for mild to humid climates.
How Does It Work?
Great for LEED and passive-energy homes, the Aprilaire 8145 pulls in outside air and mixes with your home’s return air on the HVAC system. Up to 250 cubic feet of airflow (CFM) is whisked around the home, pushing stale air out through passive venting spots, such as kitchen vent hoods, fireplaces, and bathroom exhausts.
