BROAN AI ERV and Duct work installed by a newbie!!

- We installed our Broan AI ERV systems ourselves. Given another chance would we do it ourselves again?
An ERV helps bring fresh air into your home while recovering energy from the outgoing stale air, ensuring better ventilation and comfort throughout the year. This make our home feel fresher and helps keep our family healthy.
Because we built our home ourselves, we were very intentional about what kinds of things we spent our money on. We purposefully spent extra funds on things like our insulation and foundation, and not on things that would just be superficial. With those values, we decided to purchase this ERV.
We have no experience doing ductwork or any HVAC work. This was our first project. How DIY friendly was it? Was there anything we would have done differently? Watch to find out!
The bigger question is can you build your own house? We did! Follow us to gain inspiration and learn from our mistakes. Good luck on your project!

Just a couple of days ago I looked to see what had happened to y’all. Glad to see a new video 😊.
Good to see you here, friend!
Highly recommend the AI wall controller, much easier to control the unit at your finger tip.
@@DewaltOwnersGroup I have been looking into that. Do you have personal experience?
@@Mountainview-mesa Yes. I have the VTTouch screen (wired) as my main controller. I also use VC0190 as a boost option in each bathroom (wired). It is a very nice feature to be able to control all aspects of the ERV. It also allows you to leave the ERV in smart mode, which for the most part.. does a good job.
@@DewaltOwnersGroup is the VTtouch series compatible with the BroanAI system?
What kind of grill did you end up installing? What is the name and brand and where can I find it? Thanks!
Happy you’re back! We’re wrapping up design on a similar build and your channel has been very reassuring to me as a first time owner-builder. Keep it up and good luck!
How amazing for you! What stage of your build are you in? It means a lot that you noticed our absence, thank you for following along.
why didn't you pull the exhaust air out of the return duct work from the HVAC already in the home that pulls from various rooms already? You can also pump the fresh air directly into the return stack right on the other side of the air filter oposite the coils (still on return side). Then you didn't need any of that crazy ducting all thru the home.
