Did you know the air in our homes is actually more unhealthy and contaminated than the air we breathe outdoors?
In recent years, advances in technology and home insulation have allowed homes to be sealed tighter and tighter. While these “leak proof” advances may lower your heat and cooling bills, they also seal off your home from fresh air and ventilation. When your home is unable to breathe, moisture that is naturally created from cooking, laundry, and bathing is trapped inside. With nowhere to escape, this humid air travels up to your attic, where if not properly ventilated, condenses on surfaces to form mold, mildew, and rot.
The key to a healthy home is a “healthy set of lungs” aka proper ventilation. Solar Attic Fans perform this ventilation by pulling fresh clean air into the home while simultaneously pushing out contaminated air containing heat, moisture, and indoor air pollution. Without this exchange, mold, mildew, and other airborne pollutants recirculate into the home, causing health risks for you and your family.
Poor air quality remains one of the top five health risks facing Canadians and with most of us sheltering in place at home during the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s important that we make sure the air we breathe is as healthy and clean as possible. An iSolar Solutions solar attic fan can enhance your home’s air quality and comfort remain high year-round. Contact us today with your solar ventilation fan questions and our team will be happy to help you find a home comfort solution that’s right for you!
