Control Indoor Pollution with a Whole-Home Ventilation System in Dallas

Modern homes are more energy efficient, which is good news for your utility bills. But that efficiency also makes your home more airtight, which is bad news for indoor air quality.

We spend most of our lives indoors—up to 90 percent, according to an EPA study. And having an airtight home means contaminants can build up. The EPA says this can cause your home’s air quality to be two to five times worse than outdoor air.

With a whole-home ventilation system from Levy & Son Service Experts, you can pull stale, contaminated air from your home. Then, the system replaces the stuffy air with clean air from outdoors. Some equipment can help your home retain heat and moisture in the winter and expel more of it in the summer.

Why Home Ventilation is Important

Having poor indoor air quality can make you feel lousy or aggravate ongoing conditions like allergies or asthma.

There are a few pollution sources that affect the air your family breathes.

1. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These chemicals are found in everyday household items, like furniture, flooring, paint and cleaning products. Excessive concentration can lead to respiratory irritation and headaches.
2. Dust, mold and pet dander. These are the most common indoor pollution sources. They can aggravate allergies and asthma.
3. Carbon monoxide. This colorless, odorless, tasteless gas is made by incomplete combustion in a natural gas appliance. CO poisoning causes flu-like symptoms and can be fatal.

How Whole-Home Ventilation Works

House ventilation systems can get rid of pollution from the air in your home.

Balanced ventilation uses exhaust fans to bring fresh air into the house—and push out stale air.

Plus, some systems from Levy & Son Service Experts maximize energy efficiency. This provides fresh airflow without excessive energy use.
