Energy Conservation

The energy crisis of the 1970's sparked a revolution in the way we built homes. Builders discovered many ways to eliminate air leakage through the outer walls, doors and windows. But that created a new problem: Sick Building Syndrome. Without outside air, the indoor air gets stale, humid, and dusty. Mold and dust mite infestations follow, creating respiratory irritation and damaging furniture, artwork, books, musical instruments, and even the building structure itself.

So now, builders are forced to build leaky structures, just so the occupants can get some fresh air. Other improvements have resulted in overall better energy efficiency, but in this regard we've taken a step backward.

Now there's a better way. With Truveon's Ventana™ system, builders can create a very tight shell, because the Ventana system intelligently brings in just the right amount of fresh air — no more, no less — at the right times of day, while also tightly controlling humidity and temperature. It's simply the smart way to do it.
