A breath of fresh air
As we delve deeper into winter, our attention turns to keeping our homes warm and dry. And while heating is the logical first step, it’s not the only tool in our arsenal. Solutionair’s home ventilation systems are a great way to ensure the health of our homes and whānau.
On an icy winter’s day, few things are more enticing than hunkering at home. Lighting the fire or switching on the heater and settling down – it's a cosy scene. But as you draw the curtains and close the doors to keep the heat in, have you considered that you may also be blocking the fresh air out?
A proper ventilation system is the most effective way to ensure your home enjoys clean air year-round. In fact, it’s one of the most important steps we can take in our ongoing pursuit of healthy homes. A ventilation system works by flooding your home with fresh, dry air – removing toxins and carbon dioxide in the process – to help control humidity levels, lowering the risk of condensation and its unsightly acquaintances, mould and mildew.
But there’s more to it than meets the eye. A well-ventilated home can also play a crucial role in managing asthma symptoms and improving overall respiratory health. A recent Aotearoa-led study uncovered that 15 per cent of New Zealanders have asthma (a concerningly higher rate than the global 5 per cent), so a ventilation system is a shrewd first line of defence.
“Adequate ventilation helps to reduce indoor air pollutants such as dust, allergens and mould, which are common triggers for asthma attacks,” explains Solutionair CEO Massimo Biscuola. “It promotes the circulation of clean, oxygen-rich air, which can alleviate breathing difficulties and enhance lung function.” As a reputed supplier of home ventilation products, Solutionair is well-versed in the subject. With a versatile range of advanced mechanical solutions, the innovative company has a system to suit every home, client and budget.
These leading-edge units even compensate for winter’s chilly conditions. “During the cold months, the systems are able to recover the heat from the outgoing air and reintroduce it back into your home with very high efficiency, reducing your heating bill,” says Massimo. Adding this ‘heat recovery’ function to its lengthy list of credentials (all-day controlled ventilation, air filtration, humidity and carbon dioxide control, to name a few), a Solutionair home ventilation system seems to be the clever choice for cleaner air.
