Now I feel the HRV and d glazing is a discussion every year, but thought I would bring it up again, a little bit more specific to my own property.
What experience have people had with HRV systems, especially in older homes?
Our 120m² place is heated by fireplace and heatpump at opposite sides of the house, and warms up pretty quickly, but seems to lose the heat quite quickly as well.
I feel decent thermally backed curtains + HRV system would be the best option, but would love others opinions.
We've been tossing up between fitting our 1907 villa with either retrofitted trebleglazing or installing an HRV system. The HRV system works out about $1500 cheaper from quotes, and doesn't ruin the character of the home (we have quite a few leadlight windows we love).
The HRV guy also sold us the product a lot better than the treble glaze guy, so I may be biased/misinformed.
