Broan AI Series B180H75RS Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV), 199 CFM, Side Ports

High-Capacity Heat Recovery for Larger Homes — Side Port Design for Shallow Installations

The Broan AI Series B180H75RS Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) is a high-capacity fresh air system engineered for larger homes in colder climates where sensible heat recovery — not moisture recovery — is the priority. Powered by Broan's exclusive VIRTUO™ Air Technology, this unit continuously monitors changing indoor and outdoor conditions to automatically balance airflow and deliver fresh, filtered air throughout the home — no manual adjustments required.

Equipped with powerful, high-efficiency PMSM ECM fan motors and a heavy-duty, impact-resistant polypropylene crossflow core optimized for superior sensible heat exchange in colder climates, the B180H75RS delivers up to 60% energy savings while moving a significant volume of air. Built on a large-format platform with side-positioned 6-inch ports, it accommodates shallow layouts and is ideal for wall or ceiling mount configurations where vertical height is restricted. Setup, real-time balancing data, and diagnostics are all managed directly through the built-in LCD screen.
