Ottawa Indoor Air Quality for Your Home & Family

HEAT RECOVERY VENTILATORS (HRV)
An Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) is a device that provides an efficient air exchange which uses the current indoor hot air to heat the cold outdoor fresh air being introduced into your home. In the winter months the HRV also acts as a dehumidifier, which helps reduce condensation buildup on windows and increases comfort. Including a Heat Recovery Ventilator as part of your mechanical ventilation in your home can significantly improve your indoor air quality.

ENERGY RECOVERY VENTILATORS (ERV)
An ERV has greater humidity control. Unlike the HRV, an ERV can be used year round to introduce fresh air into your home. ERV’s prevent hot, humid air from outside entering your home during the summer while still introducing fresh air into circulation.

At Advanced HVAC we are proud to provide Venmar heat recovery ventilators and energy recovery ventilators. Like with Heat Recovery Ventilators, Energy Recovery Ventilators can help improve your indoor air quality, helping keep your family healthy.

THE IMPORTANCE OF
CLEAN AIR IN YOUR HOME

Breathing quality indoor air is essential for good health. Most Canadians spend a large amount of time indoors in their homes where gasses, chemicals, and other pollutants can cause issues. Common problems due to poor indoor air quality are:

  • Headaches
  • Eye Irritation
  • Allergies
  • Fatigue
  • And More

While there are many causes of poor indoor air quality, having proper HVAC systems in place can remove the vast majority of airborne particles including pollen, pet dander, dust, mold, bacteria, and some viruses. Proper ventilation helps remove or dilute indoor air pollutants coming from within the home, while filters and air purifiers can help remove pollutants from indoors and outdoors. If you believe that your home is suffering from poor indoor air quality, contact Advanced HVAC today!

Depending on your wants and we can install Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRV) or Energy Recovery Ventilators (HRV).
  • Adding an effective air purifier In addition to proper ventilation, air purifiers improve the air quality of your home.

Air purifiers are extremely effective, and can dramatically improve the air quality of your home.
