Moisture in the house
how cheap, hrv cost 2-4 cents per day. I also looked at a heat pump and was told the running cost were 60-90 per month depending on the time of the year. I think both would be the best solution though

Moisture in the house
hrv is more expensive than dvs beacuse they will put a vent in all of your bedrooms and your main living area, dvs dont normally do that though. Hrv system is very easy to use costs I think around $2000 for a 3 bed house

Moisture in the house
old house has lots of holes for the air to escape, where as a new one is sealed up with no holes. Their solution is to put catches on a window in each room so it will be permanently open to allow air to escape. Having an open window defeats the purpose of having the system imo
