A modern ventilation solution for better indoor air quality
In a home located in Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension in Montreal , our AirGreen team recently completed the installation of a Lifebreath air exchanger . This type of device is essential in modern homes, particularly those with high-performance insulation, because it ensures constant and healthy air renewal.
The project was carried out in a utility space adjacent to the laundry room, combining technical efficiency with visual discretion. This approach perfectly illustrates our expertise in residential ventilation systems adapted to Montreal's urban context.
Choosing a Lifebreath air exchanger
The Lifebreath brand is renowned for its heat recovery ventilation (HRV) and energy recovery ventilation (ERV) systems . In this project, the installed unit allows:
-
To replace stale air with fresh outside air, while reducing heat loss.
-
Improve indoor air quality by removing humidity, pollutants and odors.
-
To optimize the energy efficiency of the home thanks to the integrated heat recovery system.
-
To meet Quebec standards regarding mandatory mechanical ventilation in new or renovated homes.
Technical details of the installation
The installation of this HVAC system was carefully planned and executed to fit harmoniously into a confined space, here the laundry room.
Main elements of the installation:
-
Wall Mounted : The Lifebreath exchanger has been securely mounted to the wall, above the appliances, to maximize the use of available space.
-
Insulated flexible ducts : connected to the device, they ensure optimal air circulation between the interior and exterior while reducing heat loss.
-
Secure power supply : direct connection to a dedicated outlet, complying with safety standards and facilitating future maintenance.
-
Convenient Access : Positioning allows occupants and technicians easy access to filters and components for simplified maintenance.
Comfort and health for occupants
Thanks to this installation, the customer benefits from:
-
Healthier indoor air , essential in an urban environment like Montreal.
-
A reduction in excessive humidity , limiting the risk of mold.
-
An improvement in energy efficiency , since the heat from the stale air is recovered to preheat the incoming air.
-
A discreet solution, integrated into a space already dedicated to domestic equipment.
Why install an air exchanger in Montreal?
In a city like Montreal, where winters are harsh and homes are often very insulated, natural ventilation by opening windows is rarely sufficient. Installing a Lifebreath air exchanger allows you to:
-
Maintain a balanced humidity level all year round.
-
Meet the requirements of energy efficiency grant programs.
-
Contribute to the overall comfort and health of occupants, particularly in dense urban environments.
