  • Electrostatic Air Filter

    An air filter composed of plastic materials that capture particulate pollutants using static electricity. See also electret.
  • Electrostatic Precipitator

    An air filter that generates a high voltage which causes particulates to become electrically charged and cling to metal plates having an opposite charge.
  • Energy-Recovery Ventilator (ERV)

    A balanced ventilation device that transfers both heat and humidity between the exhaust and supply air streams.
  • Enthalpy

    The total amount of heat contained in air, the sum of the sensible heat and the latent heat.
  • Environmental Agents

  • Exhaust-Only Ventilation

    Ventilation strategy that uses one or more fans to exhaust stale air that is replaced by outdoor air entering through passive inlets and/or random leaks. See central-exhaust ventilation.
  • Extended-Surface Filter

    An air filter configured to have a large amount of surface area to minimize resistance to airflow. See also medium-efficiency filter.
  • Filtration

    The process of removing particles or pollutants from air or water.
  • Fire Alarm

    Professionally monitored systems are most often found in commercial settings.
  • Forced Draft

    A system utilizing a fan to blow air into the combustion chamber of a combustion appliance.
