- A ventilation system is important because it helps to keep the air inside a home clean by pushing the pollutants out. But how much ventilation is enough?
- The “V” in HVAC—the ventilation system—is vital in that it helps get rid of that bad smell in the kitchen or the humidity in a bathroom, and, most importantly, helps maintain overall indoor air quality.
- When outfitting or decorating your home, there are sensitive choices you can make if you have asthma.
- While air filtration isn't a cure-all, when used with source control and ventilation it can help improve indoor air quality.
- The term airtight is often used to describe houses with very little natural air leakage. You can have an airtight house with plenty of fresh air flowing through it - if it has a mechanical ventilation system.
- When a house is pressurized, soil gases and contaminants from within building cavities are kept out of the living space.
- Tips for maximizing energy savings, and the role of ceiling fans in a healthy home.
- As part of the ongoing educational partnership between The Healthy House Institute (HHI) and the Home Ventilating Institute (HVI), in November 2010, HHI and HVI produced and circulated a White Paper to selected trade and consumer media. The paper entitled, “Victory over VOCs – Energy-Saving Fans and Other Devices Help Keep Indoor Air Fresh” was sent to major trade and consumer publications.
- Moisture problems in a house may develop when moisture-laden air passes through the random holes, into or out of the structure.
- Regardless of how efficient and effective air-cleaning devices are in removing pollutants, a question still remains about their ability to reduce adverse health effects.
- Controlled ventilation by means of a mechanical ventilation system is the only way to consistently, reliably, and predictably exchange the air in houses.
- Cost-effective fan and ventilation systems help energy-efficient homes stay healthy.
- Because Mother Nature is partially responsible for the air-exchange rate in all houses, it is important that we understand how she does her work.
- There are four basic strategies for improving air quality.
- As more people grasp that poor indoor air quality might be the cause of their illnesses, they are cleaning up their indoor environment and improving their ventilation.
- The relationship between air pressure, air movement and house tightness is integral to an understanding of how ventilation systems work.
- You can help lessen these air-pollution problems by following simple precautions.
- Clearly, if the sources of pollutants are minimized, the air will be easier to keep fresh, clean and healthy.
- To feel comfortable and healthy, people simply need clean, fresh air. Mechanical ventilation systems are specifically designed to exchange the air in a house—as well as circulate it.
