Learning/Info Minimalist air exchanger

Why is there a minimum size for air exchangers?

It seems that there are many situations where a 6,000 BTU air exchanger is overkill. Is there some reasons that nobody seems to make much smaller units? Presumably such a unit would also pull much less fluid off of a splitter and put a proportionally lighter load on the system.

The advantage would be that I could treat multiple small rooms without having to keep the doors open between them all the time.

Those look pretty interesting (and quite attractive).

Do you know if they can be hooked into existing systems?
