Mitigating Radon Dangers with an Energy Recovery Ventilator

EV200-300x191.jpg<br />
Before

An energy recovery ventilator, or ERV, performs two key tasks that help decrease radon levels in homes and commercial buildings. First, it creates positive air pressures in lower levels of buildings. Second, it improves the flow of fresh air throughout the building. Because the air pressure in buildings is naturally lower than what is outside, gases that are found naturally in surrounding soils are pulled indoors. For buildings constructed on top of radon-filled soils, this can create many real dangers. By changing the air pressure and improving air flow throughout the structure, we can help you lower radon levels and improve your health.

Energy Efficient Air Freshening

To create a warmer home in the winter or a cooler home in the summer, it is common to seal cracks around windows, doors and pipes to ensure that there is no outdoor air seeping into the home. Not only can this create a more comfortable home, but also it can help you save money. However, this energy efficiency can cause problems with negative air pressure in the home, feeding into the problems of radon seepage through the foundation or crawl space. Thankfully, a ventilation systems, such as the ERV, can solve this dilemma by directing fresh air into the home.

Improved Air Quality Through Quality Ventilation

Another problem that occurs with tightly sealed homes is increased indoor air pollution. When pollutants are caught in your home, it may be nearly impossible for them to get out, and this can lead to long-lasting household odors, stale air and even condensation on the insides of windows. The ERV can also help with each of these concerns by continually circulating fresh air throughout the house. The energy recovery ventilation system can be used along with the existing HVAC system, or it can be installed on its own through special ducts.

Fresh Indoor Air Year-Round

The energy recovery ventilator system is far superior to other ventilation systems thanks to its many uses. Not only can it pull in fresh air while getting rid of stale air, but also it can balance out temperatures and humidity all year long. In the winter, the system will heat the incoming air, and in the summer, it will cool and reduce the humidity in this same air. In addition, it creates safer indoor air by getting rid of such dangerous gases as radon, formaldehyde and carbon dioxide.

Safe and Healthy Indoor Air with the ERV

Blackburn Foundation Repair can help you enjoy safer, fresher air in your home or business with an energy recovery ventilation system that can be seamlessly added to your existing HVAC system.
