Jamaica's climate and geography provide specific conditions for the application of ERV (Energy Recovery Ventilation) systems. The following is an analysis based on the characteristics of different regions:

1. Blue Mountains

This region has a cool, humid climate, with annual rainfall reaching 5,000 mm and significant diurnal temperature fluctuations (nighttime temperatures in the mountains can drop to around 13°C). 

ERV systems effectively balance indoor and outdoor temperatures and humidity, while also recovering energy from exhaust air, reducing dehumidification energy consumption in high-humidity environments.

2. Kingston and surrounding areas

As the capital, Kingston enjoys a tropical rainforest climate with an average annual temperature of 27°C and humidity often reaching 90%. ERV systems can alleviate the oppressive effects of 

high temperatures and humidity, making them particularly suitable for commercial buildings and hotels, reducing air conditioning loads through heat exchange.

3. Montego Bay

This coastal resort area has a predominantly dry climate (dry season rainfall less than 800 mm), but tourist-intensive areas (such as resorts) still need to manage indoor and outdoor temperature fluctuations. 

ERV systems can reduce air conditioning energy consumption while maintaining ventilation efficiency.

4. Negril

The climate in this surfing hotspot is relatively dry, but during hurricane season (June-November), attention should be paid to windproofing the system. ERV systems are suitable for B&Bs or surf schools, 

balancing ventilation with energy efficiency.

Technical Adaptation Recommendations

In high-humidity areas (such as the Blue Mountains and Kingston): Select corrosion-resistant materials and strengthen condensate management.

In hurricane-risk areas: The system must meet wind pressure standards (e.g., Category 5 hurricane protection).

Energy Efficiency: Considering local electricity prices (industrial electricity in Jamaica is approximately US$0.25/kWh), prioritize models with a heat recovery efficiency of 70% or higher.
