A common misconception about air sealing is that it traps stale, unhealthy air inside your home. In reality, a properly sealed and insulated house is healthier than a leaky, drafty one. Air sealing works in harmony with modern ventilation systems, like those from Zehnder America, to regulate indoor air quality.
By eliminating uncontrolled drafts, air sealing prevents pollutants, allergens, and moisture from sneaking into your living spaces. With a well-designed ventilation system, fresh, filtered air is brought in, while stale air is efficiently removed. This creates a consistent exchange of air that is cleaner, healthier, and more energy-efficient than relying on random gaps and cracks.
Air sealing isn’t about locking air in—it’s about creating control. A tightly sealed home works with your ventilation system to provide fresh, balanced airflow, keeping your indoor environment comfortable and safe.
