ERV / HRV Systems in Castroville

A newer-home solution most people have not heard of — here is what it does for a tight Castroville build.

The Tight-House Problem

A well-sealed Castroville home keeps conditioned air in, but it also traps stale air, CO2, cooking odors, and humidity. Cracking a window throws away your cooling. A recovery ventilator solves the trade-off.

How Recovery Works

An ERV or HRV exchanges stale indoor air for fresh outdoor air, transferring most of the heat — and with an ERV, the moisture — between the two streams. You get fresh air while keeping most of the energy.

ERV vs. HRV in This Climate

In humid Medina County, an ERV is usually the right pick because it limits how much outdoor moisture comes in with the fresh air. We size it to the home and recommend the type that fits.

Why Castroville Homes in Particular

Old Alsatian homes with thick walls and steep roofs rarely have ductwork that reaches everywhere. A ductless mini-split adds real, zoned cooling without tearing into a historic structure — the right answer for a house that was never built for central air.
