Panasonic Launches New Intelli-Balance Elite and Elite Plus+ Series

In an exciting development within the realm of indoor living solutions, Panasonic Corporation has unveiled its latest series of energy recovery ventilators (ERVs) named the Intelli-Balance Elite and Elite Plus+. As a major player in the sustainable building industry, Panasonic is dedicated to improving indoor air quality, which is vital for occupant comfort and health, especially as climate conditions become more extreme.

The Intelli-Balance series, announced on September 23, 2025, at Panasonic's NJ headquarters, is tailor-made to offer robust ventilation solutions throughout various climatic conditions—from the frigid cold to sweltering heat and humidity. This line of products meets the latest building standards and addresses the evolving needs of consumers and professionals in the building sector.

Performance and Energy Efficiency

Leon Van Oostende, Group Sales Manager at Panasonic Eco Systems, states, “The Intelli-Balance Elite series reflects our commitment to providing reliable, high-performance ventilation solutions.” These ERVs are specially designed to effectively exchange stale indoor air for fresh filtered air, recovering energy from the outgoing air to maximize efficiency.

With innovative engineering, the models can function in temperatures as low as -13°F, achieving a notable 90% sensible recovery efficiency (SRE) rating while minimizing cubic feet per minute (CFM) loss at static pressure. Each unit is compliant with the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Standard 62.2, which ensures healthier indoor environments and contributes to long-term energy savings—critical factors in modern building practices.

Key Features

The Intelli-Balance Elite series provides an array of adaptable solutions, catering to the needs of single-family homes, multi-family dwellings, and buildings demanding strict code compliance. Some of the standout features include:

• - Flexible Performance Options: Available in four models with CFM ratings of 110, 120, 140, and 150, catering to various project sizes and requirements.
• - Outstanding Cold Climate Performance: Ensures superior energy recovery even in extreme conditions, promoting optimal performance and enhancing Home Energy Rating System (HERS) scores while lowering energy consumption.
• - Exceptional Static Pressure Management: Demonstrating minimal CFM loss under static pressure, the design encourages better airflow and energy efficiency—leading to more satisfied clients.
• - Advanced Water Vapor Rejection: Utilizing Panasonic's patented Cross-Flow membrane core, the system can reduce incoming moisture loads by up to 40%, a significant advantage in hot and humid climates.
• - Versatile Installation Options: Enhances workflow convenience by offering a single SKU for standard and mirror installations, thus streamlining inventory management.
• - Advanced Connectivity Options: Comes with an optional Wi-Fi controller, allowing for enhanced user experiences through remote operation capabilities.
• - Code-Ready Compliance: Addresses modern ventilation and moisture management needs while providing notifications for filter replacements and system maintenance.
• - Energy-Smart Homes: These systems significantly boost building value and offer long-term energy savings through excellent SRE ratings, reducing HVAC loads.

A Step Towards Sustainable Living

Ken Nelson, Ventilation Group Sales Manager, emphasizes the initiative, stating, “This series extends our portfolio with innovative solutions aimed at promoting optimal air circulation and filtration.” The Intelli-Balance Elite line illustrates Panasonic’s dedication to delivering energy-efficient, reliable ventilation options that foster healthier and more comfortable living spaces for occupants.
