Why do we ventilate our homes? Home ventilation is critical for having fresh, clean, healthy air at home. Every home, new or old, needs to be ventilated. In this video, Rise CEO Matt Daigle discusses the 2 types of home ventilation: natural ventilation and mechanical ventilation.
Whole-house ventilation systems are the most effective, and most involved, way to ventilate your home. Some homeowners can manage their home air quality by opening windows, using a fan, and/or using the exhaust fans in their kitchen or bathroom. If you decide to stick with natural ventilation, you sometimes run the risk of moisture build-up or mold growth in risky areas like attics and crawl-spaces.
