Do I really need an HRV in a newer home?

Most newer Ottawa Valley homes are tight enough that natural ventilation isn't sufficient — CO₂ and humidity build up. An HRV/ERV solves it without losing your conditioned air.

What's the best furnace filter to use?

MERV 11–13 hits a healthy balance for most homes. Higher MERV restricts airflow if your blower can't handle it — we measure pressure drop before recommending.

Will a whole-home humidifier prevent dry winter air?

Yes. Properly installed and controlled, a bypass or steam humidifier maintains 35–45% RH through deep winter — better wood, fewer static shocks, healthier sinuses.
