  • Field-Ready ERV Cabinet

    The Integrated ERV module is a fully assembled, galvanized steel cabinet that attaches to your existing LCU unit. The casing is salt spray tested to 672 hours per ASTM B117, insulated with ½-inch foil-faced glass fiber, and designed for single-side maintenance access — with no more than three screws to remove any panel.

  • Web Portal Analytics

    The KCC ERV Select portal is where engineers enter project data, run ERV calculations, view fan curve plots against design specs, calculate FLA, and generate client-ready PDF reports — all from a single dashboard.

  • Weather-Corrected Calculations

    The ERV calculator factors in outdoor and return air dry bulb and wet bulb temperatures, location, external static pressure, and airflow rates to output weather-corrected mixed supply air conditions and ERV cooling capacity in tons.

Platform Features

Tools Built For
ERV Engineers.

ERV Wheel Calculator

Core Feature

Enter your project's air conditions to instantly calculate ERV performance. The calculator accepts outdoor and return air dry bulb and wet bulb temperatures, external static pressure (ESP), project location, ERV wheel material type, and supply, outdoor, and exhaust airflow rates (CFM) — then delivers mixed supply air conditions and ERV cooling capacity in tons.

  • Inputs: OA & RA dry bulb / wet bulb temperatures, ESP, CFM
  • Outputs: ERV dry bulb, wet bulb, pressure loss, velocity, and cooling (tons)
  • Supports both Aluminum and Composite ERV wheel material types

Latent Eff.71.2%
Total Eff.82.4%

Fan Curve Analysis

Diagnostics

Enter airflow and pressure data to plot your fan's operating point against the design curve. The KCC ERV Select portal overlays your entered CFM and static pressure against the specified design point, so engineers can confirm the unit is performing to spec. Supports belt/variable drive at 1,800 RPM.

  • Plot entered airflow (CFM) vs. design specification overlay
  • Confirm unit is operating at its design point
  • FC Centrifugal exhaust fan — belt/variable/1,800 RPM drive

Weather Correction

Weather Data

Enter your project's outdoor and return air dry bulb and wet bulb temperatures along with your location. The ERV calculator uses these inputs to calculate mixed supply air temperatures and ERV cooling capacity, so your results reflect actual project conditions rather than generic design assumptions.

  • Outdoor air dry bulb and wet bulb temperature inputs
  • Location-based site conditions (nearest city and state)
  • Outputs weather-corrected Mixed Supply Air (M.S.A.) dry and wet bulb

FLA Calculation

Electrical

Calculate Full Load Amps for both supply and exhaust fan motors. Enter motor data and the portal computes FLA values, verifies them against nameplate ratings, and includes the results in your submittal and commissioning documentation.

  • Calculates FLA for supply and exhaust fan motors
  • Verifies calculated values against motor nameplate ratings
  • Motor options from 1 HP up to 20 HP supported

Calculation History

History

Every ERV calculation run in the portal is timestamped and stored, giving engineers a complete performance record for each unit. Filter by unit ID, date, or parameter to compare readings over time and identify performance trends across your fleet of Integrated ERV units.

Process

From Selection
To Delivery In 4 Steps.

The KCC ERV Select process takes your project from initial ERV selection through final submittal and delivery — backed by KCC Manufacturing's engineering team in Louisville, KY.

01

ERV Selection

Run the KCC ERV Select tool with your project's outdoor air, return air, static pressure, and CFM data. Use AirXchange ERC 6.0 to confirm ERV wheel sizing and performance outputs.

Inputs: OA & RA dry/wet bulb temps, ESP, location, wheel material type, supply/outdoor/exhaust CFM. Outputs include ERV dry bulb, wet bulb, pressure loss, velocity, and cooling in tons.

02

Submittal & Approval

KCC prepares the complete submittal package — Unit performance data, fan and motor FLA calculations, updated drawings, and a safety/model number check before ordering.

Final submittal includes Unit drawings, performance and electrical data, Integrated ERV specifications, and ETL verification. Fan and motor FLA are run through the process doc before sign-off.

03

Production

Once the Unit arrives at KCC's Louisville facility, the Integrated ERV cabinet is fabricated, integrated, wired, and tested. Production begins upon receipt of the Unit on site.

13-week lead time from the day KCC receives the Unit. The Integrated ERV add-on includes the ERV wheel, exhaust fan, bypass dampers, outdoor/return air dampers, and controls — all factory-assembled.

04

Delivery & Reporting

The completed Integrated ERV unit ships to site. Log in to the KCC ERV Select portal to run ERV calculations, generate PDF submittals, track FLA, review fan curve data, and export full calculation history.

The portal provides ERV calculations, fan curve analysis, FLA monitoring, weather-corrected readings, and one-click PDF report generation for client delivery and commissioning packages.

KCC ERV Select is compatible with LCU Equipment. For specific model compatibility, consult the KCC ERV Select catalog or contact the KCC team.

The Integrated ERV has a 13-week lead time from the day KCC Manufacturing receives the Unit at its Louisville, KY facility. This covers fabrication, integration, and testing of the ERV module before delivery.

The calculator requires outdoor and return air dry bulb and wet bulb temperatures, external static pressure (ESP), project location (nearest city and state), ERV wheel material type, and supply, outdoor, and exhaust airflow rates in CFM.

Yes. Integrated ERV wheels are AHRI 1060 certified and bear the AHRI certified label. Both aluminum construction and composite construction options (with silica gel or 3A molecular sieve desiccant) meet this certification requirement.

Yes. The KCC ERV Select portal generates PDF reports with full ERV performance and electrical data, formatted for client delivery, commissioning packages, and engineering submittals.

When outdoor air enthalpy falls below return air enthalpy, the ERV wheel is automatically bypassed and the outdoor air damper opens for free cooling. A bypass damper routes airflow around the ERV on the intake side during economizer operation.

Integrated ERV units are equipped with 2-inch filters for both supply and exhaust — available in MERV-8 (30% dust spot efficiency) or MERV-13 (80% dust spot efficiency), using disposable extended surface area filters with a cotton-polyester blend media and cardboard frame.
