Improve Airflow with a Dedicated Ventilation System

The ‘V’ in HVAC stands for ventilation, and many properties already use some form or other to generate steady airflow. But just because a duct system was installed doesn’t mean it’s as effective as it can be. The fact is, inefficiencies in design and minor flaws can impact how efficiently air flows from the supply vent to the return vent. In tandem with the tight seal between indoor and outdoor air, this subsequently contributes to higher concentrations of contaminants.

There are additional circumstances that can justify purchasing a ventilation system, like:

The local climate and nearby sources of air pollution: Outdoor pollutants like smog can gradually leak into your home through cracks and gaps in doors and windows, making it increasingly difficult to maintain clean air indoors. If you reside near industries such as manufacturing or mining, this can exacerbate the problem. Even the local climate can have an impact; for example, air pressure systems can trap a large volume of outdoor contamination in the same geographic area, which in turn worsens air quality.

Increased indoor pollutants: Large quantities of dust, VOCs and other debris can be a problem, particularly if you don’t have time to handle the necessary amount of cleaning. One way to address this is to strengthen ventilation, which can help air flow through the property more efficiently and keep dust from coating various surfaces. If you’ve noticed excessive dust buildup in your home, it might be a sign that your air filters could stand to be replaced.

Renovation or new construction projects: Significant renovations can be exciting, but they may also create new obstacles for the HVAC system. Adding a significant amount of square footage, for example, can cause stubborn hot and cold spots alongside other airflow issues.
