FAQs
Why is proper ventilation especially important for homes and businesses in Tullahoma?
Tullahoma experiences warm, humid summers and cool winters, which means homes are often closed up for long periods while heating or air-conditioning runs. Without adequate ventilation, moisture, allergens, and indoor pollutants such as VOCs can build up quickly. Properly designed mechanical ventilation removes stale, humid air and brings in conditioned fresh air, helping to prevent mold growth, reduce allergy symptoms, and improve overall comfort and energy efficiency.
What types of indoor air quality (IAQ) products do you install and service?
We offer a full range of IAQ solutions to complement your HVAC system, including whole-home energy-recovery ventilators (ERVs), heat-recovery ventilators (HRVs), HEPA and media air cleaners, UV-C germicidal lights, humidifiers/dehumidifiers, and smart thermostats with IAQ monitoring capabilities. Our technicians are certified to size, install, and maintain these products so they integrate seamlessly with your existing heating and air-conditioning equipment.
How often should my air ducts be cleaned or inspected in the Tullahoma area?
For most homes, we recommend a professional duct inspection every 2 years and a thorough cleaning every 3–5 years. However, if you have pets, allergy sufferers, recent renovations, or notice excessive dust or musty odors, more frequent service may be beneficial. Our technicians use video-assisted inspection tools to evaluate duct integrity, identify leaks, and determine whether cleaning, sealing, or insulation upgrades are needed.
Can upgrading my ventilation system reduce energy bills?
Yes. Modern ERV and HRV units transfer heat and humidity between incoming and outgoing air streams, so you enjoy fresh air without the energy penalty of conditioning 100 percent outdoor air. Additionally, balanced ventilation helps your HVAC system operate more efficiently by reducing moisture load and keeping air filters cleaner longer. Many homeowners see 10–25 percent savings on heating and cooling costs after a properly designed ventilation upgrade.
Do you provide indoor air quality testing, and what contaminants are common in Tullahoma homes?
We offer comprehensive IAQ assessments that measure particulate matter, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, relative humidity, and VOC levels. In Tullahoma, we frequently encounter elevated pollen, mold spores due to regional humidity, and off-gassing from household products or new construction materials. Test results allow us to tailor ventilation, filtration, and humidity-control solutions to address the specific contaminants present in your space.
What maintenance plans are available for ventilation and air purification systems?
Our ComfortGuard plans include semiannual HVAC tune-ups, filter replacements, and detailed checks of ERV/HRV cores, fans, and controls. We also clean UV-C lamps, calibrate IAQ sensors, and verify system airflow and balance. Members receive priority scheduling, discounted repairs, and documentation that can help maintain manufacturer warranties. Regular maintenance preserves efficiency, extends equipment life, and ensures your indoor air stays healthy year-round.
