You can’t control the weather, but you can make your home drier and healthier

You don’t need to look at a calendar to know that winter is knocking at the door. Outside, temperatures are dropping. Inside, this can be a time when you start seeing condensation on windows, especially in the morning.

If you are, you could be facing a home health emergency!

Condensation on the windows in the morning is a sure sign that you have high moisture levels in your home. A house that’s too damp isn’t good for you and can create or make a wide range of health problems worse.

Believe it or not, that moisture isn’t coming in from that rainy weather outside – you and your family are making it! Showering, cooking, laundry and even breathing all create a heap of moisture that has to go somewhere. In the summer, most of us just open a window and let nature do the rest. In the colder months. That’s the last thing we want to do. So we close doors and windows, keep making that moisture and before you know it we’re seeing condensation and mould, and the whole place just feels damp.

HRV home ventilation to the rescue!

HRV home ventilation is designed to combat exactly this problem. HRV home ventilation is a New Zealand designed system so you know it will work well in Kiwi homes.

Here’s how it works:
In your roof, a powerful fan unit draws in drier air, then filters it before delivering via ceiling vents to the rooms of your home. Damp, stale air is forced out, reducing humidity and moisture and constantly filling your home with fresh, filtered air.

If it sounds simple, it is. Behind the scenes, there’s plenty of technology to keep the airflow just right, and our air filters are some of the best in the world. As a homeowner, though, all you have to focus on is how good it feels!

Don’t take our word for it though. HRV is the only home ventilation system that’s backed by a 3-year scientific study. You can read more about our partnership with Unitec here.

More than 500,000 people now live in a home that we’ve helped make drier, warmer or healthier. It’s why we’ve been voted New Zealand’s most trusted home ventilation brand three years in a row, and why we’d love to chat about how we can help you and your family deal with any winter home health emergency.
