HEAT OR ENERGY RECOVERY HOUSING AND SEALING SYSTEM

摘要

A heat and energy recovery ventilator housing comprising at least one means for releasable sealing engagement of the at least one energy core to the housing and for providing an air tight seal between the at least one energy core and an interior of the housing, said sealing means positioned to prevent a leakage between the supply airflow and the exhaust airflow, is described. A sealing system comprising a gasket having a sealing surface and a rail having contact surface, said gasket attachable to an interior of the ventilator housing and said rail attachable to the core at a location in alignment with the gasket, the gasket and the rail, when positioned in alignment, magnetically cooperating thereby forming an airtight seal for preventing an air leakage between the supply airflow and the return airflow within the housing but outside of the core is also described. The ventilator housing and sealing system allows for the easy insertion and removal of a heat or energy recovery ventilator core while maintaining an airtight seal when the core is in place.
