Good ventilation in your home is crucial for maintaining a healthy and comfortable living environment.
This is especially important in Auckland where it is entirely possible to get four seasons of weather in one day.
One moment it can be cool and fresh, the next hot and humid! And that doesn’t even include the random rain showers that create moisture in the air.
That’s why a home ventilation system can be an excellent tool for keeping your indoor spaces healthy and energy efficient. And when it comes to ventilation, there is nothing more effective than SmartVent.
SmartVent home ventilation systems offer an effective solution to tackle common indoor air quality issues such as dampness, mould, and allergens.
Let’s learn all about this kind of ventilation system and why it can make your home a better space to live in.
What Is SmartVent Home Ventilation?
SmartVent is a home ventilation system that is designed to improve the air quality in your home. Among many other things, it helps to keep the air fresh and clean, regulates moisture levels, and facilitates air circulation.
While you can do manual tasks to improve air circulation in your home, such as opening your windows or using fans, SmartVent takes air quality to the next level. It provides continuous filtered airflow which removes stale air and reduces the chance of moisture build up.
And, you don’t have to worry about your power bill skyrocketing either. SmartVent systems have advanced features to ensure the best air quality without compromising on energy efficiency.
Why Home Ventilation Is Important
So, why would you invest in a ventilation system for your home? Here are just a few of the great benefits a home ventilation system provides:
- Less Dampness: Showering, drying washing and cooking creates a lot of moisture in a home. If you don’t ventilate correctly, that moisture can build up; we all know that can be bad news! Proper ventilation helps to clear excess moisture, reducing condensation on windows and walls. This, in turn, helps prevent the growth of mould and mildew, protecting your family from nasty health issues and potential property damage.
- Better Air Quality: Stale air can make a room stuffy and uncomfortable. It can also increase the number of airborne contaminants present - dust, bacteria and carbon dioxide can all have a negative impact on your health. Ventilation introduces fresh air, removing the stale stuff and creating a healthier living environment.
- Minimises Respiratory Issues: Dust and other airborne contaminants can really trigger respiratory conditions. Filtering your air can minimise major allergen culprits like pollen and dust mites. That makes advanced ventilation systems like SmartVent ideal for people who suffer from asthma or allergies. An added bonus is they also minimise the chance of airborne illnesses sticking around in your home.
- Creates Comfortable Environments: When your home is too dry or too humid, it can be uncomfortable, and it can also impact your living environment. Ventilation helps to balance humidity levels, providing year-round comfort. Balanced humidity can also protect your wooden furniture, fixtures and flooring from cracking or swelling as a result of fluctuating moisture levels.
- Energy Efficiency: When you add any appliance or system to your home, you need to assess if it is worth the additional energy cost. A SmartVent definitely is! If you elect to install a heat recovery model, you can recover up to 90% of the heat in the outgoing air! So, not only do you get fresh, clean air, but you can reduce your heating costs and maintain great energy efficiency.
- Better Overall Health: As we’ve already mentioned, stale air can be detrimental to your health. It can trigger respiratory conditions and even cause fatigue, headaches and skin irritation. Cleaner air and better temperature control help to improve your overall health. You’ll also enjoy better quality sleep without the discomfort of allergens or poor air quality.
- Boosts Your Property Value: If you ever come to sell your home or seek out new tenants, a ventilation system makes it incredibly attractive! Great ventilation means a home that is healthier and more comfortable, and one that is free from dampness or hidden damages caused by moisture.
