Current homes are made with efficiency top of mind. But that also means they’re strongly sealed and can have stuffy air.
With appropriate ventilation, your home can avoid mildew, allergen buildup and other air quality problems. Good ventilation also helps remove severe odors, like cooking smells or tobacco smoke.
While cracking a window can help for a bit, it can’t be used year-round. It can also be difficult if anyone in your family deals with allergies.
Lennox home ventilation systems in Holbrook, New York, provide an energy-efficient option: replacing flat inside air with renewed outdoor air. They’re created to work with any heating and cooling system. Plus, they don’t create any ozone, a toxic gas that can aggravate your lungs.

Three Indications Your Home Needs a Ventilation System
There are a few signs you need house ventilation, including:
Odors Never Fade
You might have a house ventilation problem if you have trouble getting rid of strong odors, including cooking smells or cigarette smoke.
Stuffy Air
Your house’s air should be clean and healthy, not stale or stuffy.
Excess Dirt
While some dust is inevitable, rooms with poor airflow can have larger quantities of dust.
Types of Ventilation Systems
There are two categories of ventilation systems—heat recovery ventilation (HRV) and energy recovery ventilation (ERV).
Both are ideal for new homes or recently updated homes with energy upgrades, but are constructed with different climates in mind.
Regions with a wide range of weather patterns, including the Midwest, can find value from both systems. Contact us for additional information about which type is best for Holbrook.
Heat Recovery Ventilation
HRV operates best in chillier climates. It exhausts air from your space, replacing it with fresh air from around your home.
As an energy-efficient option, it holds on to the heat from your indoor air. That way, you don’t have to pay to heat fresh (but cooler) air from around your home.
Energy Recovery Ventilation
ERV is a good fit for warm, humid places. It sucks the heat and moisture out of your home’s air and pushes it outside. This helps you maintain ideal humidity levels in your rooms. Balanced humidity can keep your family more comfortable and cause you to use your air conditioning less—saving you more money on cooling expenses.
