Your home likely needs better ventilation if you notice persistent stale or stuffy air, condensation on windows, lingering cooking or pet odors, humidity above 55%, or frequent allergy and asthma symptoms indoors. New, tightly built homes and tightly sealed older homes are most prone to ventilation issues because there are fewer natural air leaks.
Common warning signs
- Condensation or fog on the inside of windows in winter
- Musty or stale smell, especially in basements and lower levels
- Allergies, headaches, or sinus issues that ease when you go outside
- Visible mold or mildew in bathrooms, closets, or around windows
- High humidity readings (above 55% indoors)
An indoor air quality test will pinpoint exactly what’s happening in your home. From there we can recommend the right ventilation system, whole-home dehumidifier, or air purifier to match your home’s needs.
