Embodiment Construction

[0013]Embodiments provide a pre-packaged HVAC system that greatly reduces the need for external mechanical interconnections that may be exposed within the host structure and that otherwise interact with and / or interfere with or require separate penetrations to the host structure. Embodiments also provide for integration with a mechanical ventilation system and for incorporation of energy recovery features, all while reducing the need for openings in the exterior walls of the host structure. Embodiments may also provide for simplified installation and reduced floor space.

[0014]In an exemplary embodiment, a fully integrated HVAC system includes an energy recovery ventilator, condenser, condenser fan, and compressor, together with an evaporator and evaporator fan, all integrated into a single, prepackaged unit that is configured for installation inside the host structure. In accordance with this embodiment, the airflow over the condenser and its fan is acquired through the same externa...

Abstract

A pre-packaged air conditioning system for providing heating, cooling, ventilation and energy recovery, the system comprising: an energy recovery ventilator, condenser, condenser fan, compressor, expansion device, flow reversing valve, evaporator and evaporator fan; an inlet for providing outside air to the evaporator, the inlet for extending beyond a wall of a host structure; and an exhaust duct for exhausting air outside of the host structure, the exhaust duct for extending beyond a wall to the host structure; wherein the energy recovery ventilator, condenser, condenser fan, compressor, evaporator and evaporator fan are housed within a single envelope configured for installation inside the host structure.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. provisional patent application Ser. No. 61 / 447361 filed Feb. 28, 2011, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]This application relates generally to heating, ventilation, and cooling (HVAC) systems and particularly to a packaged HVAC system configured for indoor installation. An HVAC system typically comprises several components installed in distributed locations both inside and outside a home. For example, HVAC systems often include an air handler positioned inside a structure, the air handler having one or more fans or blowers to move an airstream through various system components and to distribute the conditioned airstream via a system of ducts. In such systems, an evaporator may be positioned within the airstream in a first location inside the home and may be configured to remove heat from the airstream and transfer that heat to a wo...
