Yes. Then if there is not another process to condense the vapor out of the
air such as air conditioner, dehumidifier, or desicants, then there is no
benifit to latent heat transfer. However, when you mechanically dry the
interior air, the ERV will preserve the value of that dehumidification.
Right? Strategies of night flushing cooler high relative humidity at night
does not qualify.
