Why Exhaust Fans Are Essential in Homes

Why Exhaust Fans Are Essential in Homes

Having exhaust fans in your home is beneficial for maintaining ideal air quality and temperature. Bathroom, kitchen, or whole systems improve ventilation as they let out the bad air to better a home’s interior environment. 

Check out how exhaust fans work and what their benefits are here: 

WHAT EXHAUST FANS DO 
Exhaust fans are known for pulling excess moisture and unwanted odours from a particular room or area. Most houses have exhaust fans in their kitchens and bathrooms – these areas can have moisture buildup due to activities such as cooking, washing, or showering. Exhaust fans also reduce chemical fume buildup and remove other contaminants that are known to be harmful when inhaled. 

HOW EXHAUST FANS WORK 
Exhaust fans help pull fumes, odours, and moisture from an area of your home, venting them outdoors for removal. Exhaust fans use a motor to turn their blades, which are responsible for pulling air out of the space. The humid, stale, or contaminated air is then propelled through the exhaust vent, and this is where it exits your home. 

Exhaust fans operate with electricity. They can be controlled by a wall switch, and some certain models come with a thermostat that signals the unit to turn on when certain temperatures are reached in a particular area. 

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF EXHAUST FANS? 
Using an exhaust fan is beneficial for the home, interior air quality, and most importantly, the comfort of its occupants. Here are some of the benefits: 

*Exhaust fans have the ability to quickly cool down areas that have become too warm or hot from activities such as showering or cooking. Hot air is vented exteriorly, thus reducing the temperature of a space without having to use the air conditioning system. 

*Exhaust fans can improve interior air quality by removing odours, humidity, and contaminants. They also provide adequate ventilation for certain areas where these air quality-diminishing agents might build up. Stagnant air is also vented out of your home, allowing conditioned air to fill the space.

by Aaron on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We are very happy to recommend this company to everyone. Our furnace broke down on Sunday morning. We phoned them and before noon Grant the owner showed up. He worked on the furnace for about a hour not wanting to give up to fix the problem. The furnace was 17 years old. I was the one talking about replacing it. End result was the next day it was all done. On the Sunday Bob came over with heaters to warm up the house. We decided to replace the water heater at the same time. Thanks Grant for the excellent work. Thumbs up.

Right on time. Explained how to work the HRV in a different way so the house would not be so dry. Changed my whole house water filter for me as well. Friendly, helpful, caring service!

by Ruth on Twintech Heating and Cooling

TwinTech is an excellent and honest company! I called them for a second opinion after being told by another company that I needed to replace my furnace. Turns out this was not the case at all! I did not need a new furnace. TwinTech did not push to make an unnecessary sale and saved me from a huge expense. Bob and Mitch were extremely professional and above all honest! I definitely recommend TwinTech!

by Anna Chin on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Amazing experience with TwinTech Heating & Cooling! Their team was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient from start to finish. They installed my new furnace quickly and left everything spotless. The technicians took the time to explain everything and made sure I was comfortable with the system before they left. Great customer service and fair pricing. I highly recommend them for anyone needing HVAC services!

Great experience all around. Bob was sharp and easy to talk to, and Greg handled the installation perfectly. Would hire them again in a heartbeat.

by Trevor Owens on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I returned from vacation to find my AC unit on the Fritz. After calling way too many places I connected with TwinTech. I’ve used the company in the past for my furnace so I was happy when I recognized Greg at my front door. He’s great and the service is always top notch. I’d highly recommend using twintech for honest, superior service in the Durham region. Thanks!

by Nicole Alain on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I called Twin Tech when my air conditioning stopped working. Greg came over to diagnose the issue - the same day. He was able to diagnose the issue and resolve it quite quickly. Although it was a quick fix, Greg was very thorough in explaining the issue and provided great advice. Not to mention, I felt very comfortable having Greg in my home - which I consider very important when hiring a service provider. Twin Tech will be my go-to from now on. Thank you!!

by Courtney Parkes on Twintech Heating and Cooling
