Fresh Air - Healthy Home
Indoor Air Quality & Why Homeowners Need It
Today’s air-tight construction techniques can cause excess humidity and airborne pollutants to be trapped indoors. The result? Mold, condensation, and other issues can have serious consequences for the home or businesses structure and significantly impact the health of its occupants. Exceptional indoor air quality not only increases the longevity of the home, but helps people breathe, sleep, play and live better.
When building or remodeling a home, putting together a great ventilation strategy starts with fresh air. Broan Fresh Air Systems are designed to provide a continuous supply of fresh air to each home — and keep the people in it healthy. These systems draw fresh air in, filter it, then distribute it throughout your home. When you build with a Broan Fresh Air System, your customers will see the energy-savings while having the comfort knowing that every breath taken inside is as fresh as one taken outside.

The Innovative Choice
New homes are built to maximize energy efficiency, resulting in less fresh air naturally entering the living space. Fresh Air Systems solve the trapped air problem by exchanging air consistently and efficiently throughout the entire home. Broan offers a full range of fresh air systems to meet a variety of fresh air challenges. From the AI Series line featuring Viruto Air Technology that detects conditions and adjusts in real-time, to the Fresh In supply fans with a built-in intelligent algorithm that monitors outdoor conditions to bring in fresh air at optimal times, we have a solution to almost any challenge.
The chart below, based on ASHRAE 62.2, gives a quick reference guide to help you determine what size system your home requires.
Note: Most states still operate under 62.2-2010 rates. Before specifying, check local building codes to verify ventilation requirements.
Residential Balanced Ventilation
Balanced ventilation is the healthiest and most energy-efficient solution for whole home ventilation. Balanced options include HRVs (heat recover ventilators) and ERVs (energy recovery ventilators). Both fresh air systems exchange stale indoor air and pollutants for fresh, filtered air from outside, and efficiently manage the air exchange to maintain comfortable temperature and humidity levels. HRVs transfer the heat lost during the air exchange and ERVs transfer both heat and energy in the form of moisture, reducing the costs to heat or cool the incoming fresh air.

High moisture levels in your home can cause discomfort and for mold, mildew, and other allergens to thrive, triggering asthma and allergic reactions, among many other health issues. Our whole-home dehumidifiers can help make your home more comfortable and provide superior air filtration while safeguarding you and your home.
