Have you been wondering why your home is so hot over summer? Chances are your overheating problem is caused by a combination of poor shading, orientation of your home, and a lack of ventilation.
New homes are often airtight and energy efficient goldfish bowls. They are great at keeping heat in during winter, but poor at letting it out over summer. Without a way to escape, the hot air only gets hotter, turning your home into a furnace.
Ventilation can help cool your home by swapping that hot stale air with fresh cool air, reducing your overheating problem and cooling your home without using AC.
But why use ventilation and not just a window?
