All homes require adequate ventilation and to remove excess humidity, airborne pollutants and odors. As homes across the country are built and renovated with energy conservation in mind, they are more air-tight, and the need for balanced mechanical ventilation is even more obvious.

Without fresh air, carbon dioxide, odors, dust, airborne pollutants and excess humidity are kept indoors, potentially causing or aggravating problems to occupants’ health and comfort, and encouraging mold growth. Clearly, effective ventilation is a vital system in a healthy home.
