Ventilation
Ventilation reduces moisture, pollutants, and allergens from indoor air, improving the health of your home or building.
Weatherization and proper ventilation go hand in hand. Taking a whole-building approach to efficiency means controlling how and where air exchange occurs. By circulating the right amount of outdoor air through your home or building, you can reduce the risk of mold, mildew, allergens, and carbon monoxide. Today’s ventilation products range from bathroom fans to modern air-exchangers that minimize heat (or cooling) loss.
Home Fans and Vent Hoods
Whole-house fans pull incoming air through your entire home and out through the attic or roof. In kitchens, range hoods remove cooking smoke, grease, and air pollutants. And in the bathroom, exhaust fans prevent mildew by removing heat and moisture. Today it’s even possible to find bathroom fans that work like whole-house fans—running continuously and varying their speed to match your home’s changing ventilation needs.
- Be more comfortable in your home or small business
- Remove allergens, smoke, and gases
- Prevent moisture, mold, and rot in attics, roofs, and bathrooms
Energy Recovery Ventilation (ERV)
Modern energy-recovery ventilation systems maximize savings even more for home- and business-owners. In the winter, they transfer heat from the warm exhaust air to the cold incoming air, minimizing heat loss. The process reverses in the summer months to preserve conditioned air and minimize heat gain. These systems can recover 70-80% of the energy used to heat or cool air in homes or commercial buildings—though that can vary based on climate.
- Ventilation recovery systems use air-exchangers to minimize heat (or cooling) loss
- Improve air quality and safety by decreasing contaminants and pollutants in the air
- Boost employee and customer comfort and employee well-being
