An Innovative Ventilation Installation That’s a Game Changer in Laval
At AirGreen, we’re always at the forefront of HVAC ventilation technology, offering our clients high-performance, durable solutions perfectly tailored to their environment. That’s exactly what we delivered in our latest project in Laval, where a residential client entrusted us with the installation of a next-generation ventilation system in his single-family home. The goal: significantly improve air quality while reducing energy consumption.
A Major Challenge: An Older Home with Humidity Issues
Our client, owner of a home built in the 1970s in the Laval-des-Rapides neighborhood, was dealing with persistent humidity problems, especially in the basement. Despite using a dehumidifier, humidity levels remained too high, creating discomfort and stale air. After a thorough assessment, our team recommended installing a centralized heat recovery ventilation system (HRV) with the latest technology.
Equipment Choice: Efficiency, Performance, and Environmental Responsibility
We chose a high-efficiency HRV model by Lennox, known for its quiet operation, durability, and ability to extract stale air while recovering the heat to pre-warm incoming air. This system ensures continuous ventilation, essential in both modern and older homes, while minimizing heat loss—an undeniable advantage in Québec’s climate.
Technical specifications of the installed system:
-
Brand: Lennox
-
Model: HRV Ventilation PureAir MERV16
-
Airflow rate: 200 CFM
-
Filtration: HEPA filters + activated carbon
-
Power consumption: ultra low-energy (ECM motors)
-
Eligible for Laval’s LogisVert program: up to $850 in subsidies
A Custom Installation in a Complex Structure
One of the main challenges was integrating the system into an older structure with low ceilings and an outdated air distribution setup. Our technicians had to redesign the duct network to ensure even ventilation across the home’s three levels, including the basement, without affecting the home’s aesthetics.
We used insulated flexible ducts, acoustic silencers, and an intelligent control system that modulates airflow based on real-time humidity levels.
Results Observed After Installation
Within the first few weeks post-installation, the client noticed a clear improvement in indoor air quality and a stabilized humidity level around 45% throughout the house. No more foggy windows, lingering odors, or heavy air. Alongside the regained comfort, the electric bill dropped thanks to the system’s energy efficiency.
“I had serious doubts before starting the work, but the result is incredible. The air feels much lighter, I sleep better, and my kids no longer wake up with stuffy noses.” — Testimonial from the homeowner
Why This Installation Represents the Future of Residential Ventilation
This project in Laval perfectly illustrates the trend the market is moving toward: smart, economical, eco-friendly, and seamless ventilation. Thanks to heat recovery technology, the air is continuously purified, and winter heating demands are reduced.
The installed system also integrates with the client’s smart thermostats (Ecobee), enabling centralized control of both ventilation and heating.
