The Benefits of Home Ventilation Systems

If your house is damp and moldy, condensation streaming down the windows and has a stale smell to the air you need to improve your ventilation. This is where home ventilation systems can make a huge difference.

What are Home Ventilation Systems?

These are systems that move air around your home with fans, providing constant air circulation. Great for any season, they’re the perfect addition to any home. Keeping you cool in the summer without having to open all doors and windows, desperately trying to find a draft.

Different Kinds of Air Purifying Systems

Depending on your requirements, there are a couple varieties to choose from. These systems are not good at heating your house on their own, if this is your concern you might want to look at one of our heat transfer systems here.

Balanced Pressure

This system is generally powered by two separate fans that pull air from different sources. One fan pulls air from outside and directs it into your home. The other fan extracts the same amount of air from within your home and directs it outside.

This creates a continuous air flow, keeping the air clean and fresh. An air tight house will improve the efficiency of the unit.

Positive Pressure

This style is the most common found in New Zealand. Air is pushed from the cavity in your roof, though vents in your ceiling, into different rooms in the house.

For these to work effectively you need to make sure that your house is not too draughty otherwise the unit will struggle to move the air efficiently.

Roof cavities are generally dusty and full of contaminants, so filters are installed to purify the air. This is a potential issue because of where they (the filters) are installed, the tend to not get cleaned as much.

Options for Diy Home Ventilation Systems

Installing one of these units yourself can be a fantastic way to save some money. It will only take a day to complete so perfect for a weekend job.

Make sure you plan out where you are going to place your vents and fans. Take the extra time to fill in any holes or gaps that could potentially alter the units efficiency.

The Best Home Ventilation Systems

The best systems are the ones that are installed correctly. Here are some factors to keep in mind when you are looking at installing one of these units.

The kind of system you install can determine its benefits. Where you place the vents, the style of the house, how well it is insulated and how air tight the house is are all things to consider.

Our suggestion is to talk to your supplier to get the best advice. With their expertise you will be able to compare home ventilation systems to see which would suit you.
