This exhibition will take place at Booth #6161 located in the Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, from February 10 to February 12, 2025.

Setting New Standards for Indoor Air Quality

Panasonic is actively participating in the call for improved energy efficiency and indoor air quality—a dual demand that's become increasingly pertinent as homeowners prioritize both comfort and environmental responsibility. Leon Van Oostende, Group Sales Manager of Panasonic Eco Systems, emphasizes the importance of the technology being showcased, stating, "As the industry continues innovating to meet demand for better energy efficiency while enhancing indoor air quality in our living spaces, solutions like the BalancedHome series demonstrate why Panasonic's technology is leading the way."

The BalancedHome ERV series is engineered specifically for high-performance balanced ventilation. Comprising eight distinct models categorized across four different airflow capacities, Panasonic provides extensive flexibility in configurations. The series is designed to meet various installation needs, accommodating both top and side port setups to ensure optimal indoor air quality. This versatility makes it an ideal choice for a multitude of residential applications.

Energy Efficiency at Its Core

Each unit within the BalancedHome series boasts impressive efficiency ratings, with Elite Plus models achieving an outstanding sensible recovery efficiency (SRE) rating of 82%. This series incorporates Panasonic's advanced SmartFlow™ technology, which enables these ventilators to accurately measure static pressure and deliver the precise amount of ventilation needed, regardless of the climate zone. As a result, users can enjoy improved air quality without incurring high operational costs.

The commitment to sustainability is not only highlighted through the BalancedHome ERV series but is also evident in the next-generation WhisperGreen® Select family of premium exhaust fans that will also be on display. These fans are equipped with a high-efficiency DC motor and cutting-edge technology, providing improved flexibility and user customizations, making them a valuable addition to energy-conscious homes.
