Ventilation system improves air quality

I like living in an area that provides four distinctive seasons.

I enjoy the change in the weather.

In the fall, the leaves are absolutely gorgeous and the air is crisp and cool. Our winters bring severe cold and snow, but I like to ski, snowmobile and bundle up in sweaters. The springtime temperatures are unpredictable. We get a lot of rain, and it’s exciting to see the first flowers and green leaves on the trees. During the summer, I thoroughly appreciate temperatures in the upper eighties. The changing conditions can cause some issues and expense. It’s necessary to rely on either a heating or cooling system just about all year round. The expense of maintaining a comfortable home is a huge drain on the budget. Because of this, I’ve taken a great deal of energy saving measures. I’ve caulked, weatherstripped, insulated and tried to tighten up the home and eliminate waste. I hope to prevent freezing cold or overheated air from coming in while also stopping my conditioned air from leaking out. Creating a tight thermal envelope minimizes my monthly utility costs. However, it also eliminates natural ventilation. The indoor environment can become stale, stuffy and polluted. Contaminants become trapped inside. The solution is a ventilation system that brings in fresh, clean air without wasting energy. In fact, the ventilation system uses the outgoing air to preheat the incoming air during the winter. It lessens the workload of the furnace while also improving air quality and comfort. In the summer, the influx of fresh air helps to lessen humidity levels and the demands on the air conditioner.
