Use and Care Manual

Why should you improve the indoor air quality
throughout your home?
Because healthy indoor air quality matters for all of us, but no regulations mandate
it in the retrofit market. And yet where there are regulations, as in the new
construction market, consumers still experience issues with poor indoor air
quality, even when their home is equipped with an air exchanger such as an HRV!
When they first move in, home owners tend to enjoy their pleasant new dwelling,
yet quite often by the second year they experience phenomena such as excess
moisture, musty moldy odors, and allergic reactions to indoor air contaminants. As
the seasons change, humidity issues that lead to damp uncomfortable basements
& crawlspaces, or even window condensation upstairs, can become apparent.
