Breathe Cleaner. Live Healthier.

Why Ventilation Matters in Rohnert Park
Here’s the thing about ventilation: most people ignore it until something feels “off.”
But the truth is, poor airflow affects your home more than you realize.
1. Modern homes trap pollutants.
Tightly sealed homes save energy, but they also trap dust, pet dander, odors, VOCs, moisture, smoke particles, and chemicals from cleaning products or furniture.
2. Poor airflow affects your health.
People often notice more allergies, headaches, or breathing problems when stale air builds up indoors.
3. Moisture gets trapped.
Bathrooms, kitchens, and attics are common hotspots. Without proper ventilation, moisture leads to mold, mildew, peeling paint, and structural issues.
4. Your HVAC system works harder.
If your air is too humid or unbalanced, your heating or cooling system has to fight it — which means higher bills and more wear on equipment.
5. Comfort suffers.
Rooms feel stuffy. Odors linger. Air quality drops. Kids and pets may react to indoor pollutants.
Good ventilation fixes all of this — quietly and consistently.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Why can’t I just open my windows for ventilation?
Windows help temporarily, but they don’t control humidity, temperature, or filtration. And they can’t stay open during cold weather or smoky conditions.
Should I choose an ERV or HRV?
ERVs handle both heat and humidity, while HRVs focus mainly on exchanging heat. The best choice depends on how airtight your home is and your indoor humidity levels.
Will ventilation increase my power bill?
Not usually. Balanced systems use low-energy fans and reduce strain on your HVAC system, so you may actually save money.
How often do filters need to be changed?
Every 1–3 months for standard filters. ERV/HRV cores and ducts should be checked yearly.
Can ventilation be added to an older home?
Yes. We retrofit systems all the time. We adjust ducts, add fans, or install fresh-air intakes without major renovations.
My bathrooms get humid fast. Is that a ventilation issue?
Yes. If mirrors fog instantly or moisture lingers, your exhaust system may be undersized or not working properly.
How do I know if my home needs better ventilation?
Look for humidity issues, mold, stale odors, poor airflow, allergy symptoms, or uneven temperatures.
