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 Marshfield, Wisconsin, 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 types of ventilation systems—heat recovery ventilation (HRV) and energy recovery ventilation (ERV).
Either is great for new homes or recently updated homes with energy upgrades, but are made with different climates in mind.
Environments with a wide assortment of weather patterns, including the Midwest, can find value from both systems. Contact us for additional information about which type is best for Marshfield.
Heat Recovery Ventilation
HRV operates best in chillier climates. It exhausts air from your home, replacing it with fresh air from around your home.
As an energy-efficient option, it maintains the heat from your indoor air. That way, you don’t have to pay to treat fresh (but chillier) air from the outdoors.
Energy Recovery Ventilation
ERV is great for warm, humid areas. It draws the heat and moisture out of your house’s air and pushes it outside. This allows you to keep ideal humidity levels in your home. Balanced humidity can keep your house more comfortable and cause you to use your air conditioning less frequently—saving you more money on cooling charges.
