Types of Ventilation
Systems
Positive Pressure Systems
Pumps filtered outdoor air into your home
Pushes stale air out through gaps around windows and doors
Ideal for reducing dampness and condensation
Heat Recovery Ventilation (HRV) Systems
Exchanges stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air
Recovers heat from outgoing air to warm incoming air
Highly energy-efficient, especially in colder climates
Energy Recovery Ventilation (ERV) Systems
Similar to HRV, but also transfers moisture between airstreams
Helps maintain optimal indoor humidity levels
Excellent for climates with hot, humid summers
Exhaust Ventilation Systems
Expels stale air from specific areas like bathrooms and kitchens
Creates negative pressure to draw in fresh air through vents
Often used in conjunction with other ventilation methods

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How do I know if my home needs a ventilation system?
A: Signs include persistent condensation, musty odours, or visible mould growth. We can perform an assessment to determine your needs.
Q. What is the difference between a ventilation system and a heating and cooling (heat pump) system?
A. Heat Pumps provide heating and cooling solutions for your home, however, some systems have a limited ability to bring fresh air into the home and send waste air outside. A ventilation system draws fresh air from outside, running it through a filter, helping to keep your home ventilated with fresh, clean, dry air. It also helps to prevent the build up of condensation.
Can I have both ventilation and heating and cooling?
A. Yes. At Controlled comfort we can discuss combining ventilation , heating and cooling in the one system that works seamlessly so you can have a clean, fresh warm home all year round.
Q: Will a ventilation system increase my energy bills?
A: While there's some energy use, proper ventilation can actually reduce overall energy costs by improving HVAC efficiency.
Q: How often should I change the filters in my ventilation system?
A: This varies by system and usage, but generally every 3-6 months. We'll provide specific guidance for your system.
Q: Can a ventilation system help with my allergies?
A: Yes, by removing allergens and pollutants from your indoor air, a ventilation system can significantly improve allergy symptoms.
Q: Is it noisy to run a ventilation system?
A: Modern systems are designed to operate quietly. You'll barely notice it's running.
Q: Can I install a ventilation system in an existing home?
A: Yes, we can design and install ventilation systems for both new builds and existing homes.
Q: How long does it take to install a whole-home ventilation system?
A: Installation typically takes 1-2 days, depending on the complexity of the system and your home's layout.
Q: Will a ventilation system eliminate the need for dehumidifiers or air purifiers?
A: In many cases, yes. A well-designed ventilation system can effectively manage humidity and air quality.
Q: How much maintenance does a ventilation system require?
A: Regular filter changes and annual inspections are typically sufficient. We offer maintenance plans for worry-free operation.
Q: Can a ventilation system be integrated with my existing heating and cooling system?
A: Yes, we can design your ventilation system to work seamlessly with your current HVAC setup.
