What makes ventilation difficult in Ahmedabad?

Ahmedabad regularly records India's highest summer temperatures (46–48°C). However, it is also one of India's driest — humidity drops below 20% RH in peak summer. Extreme heat with very low humidity is a unique ventilation profile.

Which machine is right for Ahmedabad?

Revita ERV + MERV-13 (Standard) · RHP (Premium for extreme summer)

Ahmedabad's dry climate means ERV moisture transfer is actually beneficial (prevents air from being too dry). Heat recovery at 46°C outdoor temperature is critical. For premium: RHP provides active cooling making fresh air comfortable at peak temperatures. HEPA-13 essential for homes near GIDC Naroda, Vatva, or Odhav industrial estates.

For Ahmedabad we specify Revita ERV as the default, with MERV-13 (HEPA-13 near GIDC industrial zones) filtration. Models: Revita INA-MFQR series (standard), RHP INA-RHP Series (premium). Model-by-model airflow, static pressure and power figures are on the spec sheets.

Typically installed in: Apartments · Premium villas · Commercial offices · Healthcare.
Also worth considering: Standard Revita ERV sufficient for most residential; RHP warranted for large commercial or premium residential

How is a system sized here?

Sizing is driven by occupancy, not floor area — CO2 comes from people, so a small crowded flat needs more air than a large empty one. ASHRAE 62.1 sets the airflow per person; that number picks the unit. Ahmedabad then adds two local constraints: a summer peak of 44–48°C, which decides how much heat recovery is worth paying for, and humidity of 15–30% RH (summer), which decides whether plain recovery is enough or whether active dehumidification is needed.

What do people in Ahmedabad ask?

Ahmedabad sees an AQI range of roughly 100–200 through the year. Ahmedabad regularly records India's highest summer temperatures (46–48°C). However, it is also one of India's driest — humidity drops below 20% RH in peak summer. Extreme heat with very low humidity is a unique ventilation profile. That range is what sets the filter grade: we specify MERV-13 (HEPA-13 near GIDC industrial zones) here.
Revita ERV + MERV-13 (Standard) · RHP (Premium for extreme summer). We recommend the Revita energy recovery ventilator for Ahmedabad. Ahmedabad's dry climate means ERV moisture transfer is actually beneficial (prevents air from being too dry). Heat recovery at 46°C outdoor temperature is critical. For premium: RHP provides active cooling making fresh air comfortable at peak temperatures. HEPA-13 essential for homes near GIDC Naroda, Vatva, or Odhav industrial estates.
MERV-13 (HEPA-13 near GIDC industrial zones). Filter grade follows the local AQI rather than a national default — MERV-13 handles ordinary urban particulate, while HEPA-13 is warranted where AQI regularly passes 200 or where dust and industrial sources are present. In Ahmedabad the range is 100–200.
Yes. InAir supplies and installs across India from its Hyderabad base, and Ahmedabad in Gujarat is covered end to end — free site survey, duct design, supply, commissioning with measured airflow readings, and handover. A typical residential installation is commissioned ten to twelve days after order. Send a floor plan to sales@in-air.in and an engineer returns a sized proposal.
Sizing starts from occupancy rather than floor area, because CO₂ is produced by people. ASHRAE 62.1 gives the airflow per person; that figure sets the unit, and the Ahmedabad summer peak of 44–48°C plus humidity of 15–30% RH (summer) decides whether plain heat recovery is enough or whether active dehumidification is required.
