The HRV System: Maintaining A Healthy Home

You are going to see us harping on the HRV systems a bit more... because there are far too many homes that we go into that don't have them on at all, don't have them on enough, and we start seeing damage around the home.

The HRV controls the humidity in your home, and the colder it is outside (aka Winnipeg Winters) the lower that humidity needs to be. If you are seeing condensation around your windows, it most likely needs to be turned down lower.

If you decide you don't like the way your body feels when it is turned down to where it is supposed to be, so you turn it back up... you are sacrificing the integrity of your home. Side effects to your home are growing mould and an overall "unhealthy" home.
