Keep the Home Healthy with Ventilation Systems from Heat Pump Guys

Heat Pump Guys say ventilation is important to maintain the air quality and to control moisture levels in a property and their technicians can assist customers choose from the positive pressure ventilation systems or the energy recovery ventilation systems in Auckland.

High levels of moisture not only cause damage to the fabric of a building but are also the breeding ground for mould, mildew and dust mites. These organisms thrive in cold damp houses and are the reason why Kiwis have one of the highest rates of asthma (and other respiratory illnesses) in the world.  In addition, health can be affected by poor indoor air quality due to all the chemicals people add when using every day household products such as cleaning, disinfecting, and cosmetic supplies.

New Zealand government agency Energywise says a well designed and installed home ventilation system offers the convenience of good ventilation by continuously replacing air, independently of weather conditions. Home ventilation systems use fans to move air into the house, offering an alternative to opening doors and windows.

If dampness is a concern, addressing the source of the moisture problem will be ideal before looking at ventilation systems. Heat Pump Guys will often be able to advise on the best options when it comes to make the final step before investing in a ventilation system.

The positive pressure system blows drier air from the roof cavity through single or multiple ceiling vents. This pushes the stale damp air outside through gaps at windows or doors.

The energy recovery (balanced pressure) system works with two fans and two different air streams. One fan draws fresh air from outside into the house, while the other extracts warm, stale air from inside the house and transfers some of it’s heat energy to the incoming air in a heat exchanger unit.
