Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between ventilation and a heat transfer system?
Ventilation manages fresh air and moisture (reducing condensation and pollutants). Heat transfer moves warm air from a hotter area of the home to cooler rooms to balance temperatures; it’s an enhancement to your main heat source, not a replacement.
Will ventilation help with condensation and mould risk?
Effective ventilation helps remove moist air and improve indoor air quality, which supports healthier, drier indoor conditions.
What are the Healthy Homes ventilation requirements for rentals?
The ventilation standard requires extractor fans (or qualifying continuous mechanical ventilation) in kitchens and bathrooms that vent to the outside; recirculating fans don’t meet the standard. Specific capacity/diameter requirements apply in the regulations.
Does a heat transfer system work on its own?
No. A heat transfer system works best alongside a primary heat source, plus good insulation and ventilation, to create more even comfort across rooms.
How much maintenance do these systems need?
Maintenance is typically light: check/clean filters and vents and keep airflow unobstructed; sealed ducting and a clean fan unit support efficiency and lifespan.
