Energy Recovery Membrane Cores

EcoCore™ Membrane Enthalpy Heat Exchanger

High-Efficiency Heat & Moisture Recovery for Modern Ventilation Systems

The EcoCore™ Membrane Enthalpy Heat Exchanger from DRI sets new benchmarks in energy efficiency, performance, and operational simplicity. Designed for advanced ventilation applications, EcoCore™ enables simultaneous transfer of heat and moisture, helping buildings maintain indoor comfort while significantly reducing HVAC energy consumption.

Unlike conventional heat exchangers, EcoCore™ uses a fixed, membrane-based technology that allows thermal and moisture exchange without mixing air streams—making it ideal for environments where hygiene and air quality are critical.

What Is an Enthalpy Heat Exchanger?

An enthalpy heat exchanger transfers both:

In ventilation systems, enthalpy recovery improves comfort and efficiency by pre-conditioning incoming fresh air using energy from the exhaust air.

There are two common designs:

Membrane heat exchangers are preferred in modern ventilation systems because they completely separate supply and exhaust air, ensuring:
