FAQs
Why is proper ventilation so important for homes and businesses in Coalmont?
Coalmont’s seasonal temperature swings—cold, tightly-sealed winters and warm, humid summers—mean buildings are often closed up for long stretches. Without balanced ventilation, airborne contaminants such as dust, pollen, combustion by-products, radon and excess moisture accumulate, leading to respiratory irritation, mold growth and lingering odors. A well-designed ventilation system continuously exchanges stale indoor air with filtered, conditioned outdoor air, maintaining healthy humidity levels (30–50 %), lowering pollutant concentrations and helping your HVAC equipment operate more efficiently.
What indoor air-quality (IAQ) products and services do you offer?
Our IAQ lineup includes whole-house air purifiers (media, HEPA and UV-germicidal options), energy-recovery ventilators (ERVs), heat-recovery ventilators (HRVs), dehumidifiers, humidifiers and advanced MERV-rated filtration upgrades. We also provide duct cleaning, aeroseal duct sealing, IAQ testing (particulates, VOCs, carbon monoxide, radon) and ongoing maintenance plans to keep your air-quality devices running at peak performance.
How can I tell if my existing HVAC system needs a ventilation upgrade?
Common warning signs include persistent condensation on windows, musty or stale odors, unexplained allergy or asthma flare-ups, visible mold around registers, inconsistent indoor humidity, and excessive dust buildup. If your CO2 readings exceed 1,000 ppm when the home is occupied, or you notice combustion appliances back-drafting, your ventilation rate is likely insufficient. A professional air-balance test and blower-door diagnostic can quantify the exact airflow deficit and identify the most cost-effective upgrade.
Are energy-recovery ventilators (ERVs) a good choice for older Coalmont homes?
Yes. Many heritage homes were retrofitted with insulation and tighter windows, greatly reducing natural infiltration. An ERV introduces controlled fresh air while transferring heat and moisture between the outgoing and incoming air streams, recovering up to 80 % of the energy that would otherwise be lost. This keeps heating costs down in winter, limits excess humidity in summer, and complies with current building codes—without major structural changes. We size the ERV based on square footage, occupancy and existing HVAC capacity to ensure seamless integration.
How often should my air ducts be cleaned and inspected?
For most Coalmont properties, we recommend a full duct inspection every 2 – 3 years and cleaning every 4 – 6 years. However, if you have pets, recent construction dust, smokers, or household members with respiratory issues, yearly inspections and more frequent cleanings may be beneficial. During each visit, our technicians look for microbial growth, loose insulation, disconnections, and excessive debris; we provide before-and-after camera footage so you can see the results.
Do you offer after-hours HVAC and air-quality emergency service in Coalmont?
Absolutely. Our local team is on call 24/7, 365 days a year. Whether you’re facing a ventilation failure, furnace breakdown, refrigerant leak, frozen coil or dangerously high carbon-monoxide readings, we dispatch certified technicians with fully stocked service vehicles to restore safe operation quickly. We waive standard diagnostic fees for Priority Maintenance Plan members and back all emergency repairs with a 1-year parts and labor warranty.
