My house is 1300 square feet and has a different brand HRV. We have been running it on the lowest speed, about 35 CFM, for 12 years now. We have never felt any need to run it at a higher speed, even when there were six people and a tiny dog in the house.

The exhaust air is taken from the bathrooms, so no need for separate bathroom exhaust fans. The supply air is ducted to the return air duct. I like the setup and would not change it.
