How much does recuperation cost?

Added: Tuesday, 3/21/2023


Efficient ventilation , whether in a residential building, an office or a production hall, is essential to maintain physical and intellectual fitness. People deprived of fresh air are unable to function properly. Even many modern machines and devices (including home use) fail in an atmosphere full of dust, dust and carbon dioxide. The disadvantage of fans is the loss of thermal energy with gas exchange. How to combine practical with useful? The answer is heat recovery, which not only improves air quality, but also effectively protects against the loss of valuable heat.

How much does recuperation cost?

It is virtually impossible to give a clear answer to this question. Why? Selection of the appropriate recuperator   is associated with a number of operating factors relating to a specific room, apartment or the entire building.   The cost of purchasing a recuperator   including installation, it may range from PLN 20,000 to PLN 30,000, but this is not a reliable result.

In other words, without knowing the demand for ventilation air, it is impossible to purchase equipment that will maximize air comfort in the building. They are another issue too   parameters that the recuperator should have   in the context of specific conditions.

Criteria for selecting a recuperator:

  • Heat recovery level for a given efficiency;

  • The amount of power consumption depends on the efficiency and pressure of the installation;

  • Overall dimensions of the device;

  • Location of the connection points;

  • Bypass (option);

  • Automation (option);

  • Energy efficiency class

Only knowledge of the above parameters will make it possible   heat recovery center   will meet the requirements set by the investor in terms of climatic and thermal comfort.

What is the payback period for investment in recuperation?

Assuming that the cost of a recuperator in the basic version will be approximately PLN 10,000 and the fact that currently building insulation fees constitute a significant part of family and company budgets, the investment should pay off within 10 to 15 years. The data concerns the full installation (purchase of equipment and assembly) for a building with an area of 200 m².

This is an indicative result, which may be significantly reduced with constantly increasing heat energy prices. It is worth adding here that   house with heat recovery   reduces heat losses by up to 75-90%.

This is a huge improvement compared to the commonly used gravity ventilation, which irretrievably discharges as much as 35% of the heat energy accumulated inside the building into space. Losses due to this may amount to 40 kWh in a household.

Importantly, thanks to the application   mechanical ventilation with heat recovery   investors do not lose access to fresh air while maintaining thermal comfort in all rooms.

Not without significance on   length of the investment payback period   It is also possible to benefit from funding under the " Clean Air " program. One of the points specifying the scope of the benefit is:   purchase and installation of mechanical ventilation with heat recovery - heat recovery.

Recuperation, like other pro-eco solutions, are slowly becoming applicable in neighboring countries. It is only a matter of time when the use of this technology will not only become the norm in Poland, but also become a sign of good taste and ecological awareness. Therefore, it is worth expanding your knowledge on this topic,   using our publications .

By providing you with modern and economical equipment, we also ensure that you have constant access to up-to-date information on everything related to utility energy.
