Basement Solution with Sensor Control
Technologically advanced ventilation unit with computerized controls and sensors for optimum moisture control and air quality.
The lack of ventilation, moisture intrusion, cold surfaces, combustion and tendency of pollutants to gravitate down, create an environment in the basement where the negative conditions work their way upwards and make your house unhealthy, uncomfortable and at risk from structural damage. There are observable indications of harmful conditions- odors (a gaseous byproduct of mold activity), mildew, condensation, and wood rot. The above are a clear indication of even more pollutants and problems that are undetected- the moisture that nurtures biological growth of mold, dust mites, termites and infestation. Pollutants and gases proliferate in basements (combustion, radon, etc.) and are absorbed in the moist air. The lack of ventilation will result in their infiltration into living areas. Stagnant moisture will saturate wood and concrete, causing floors to buckle, wood rot in beams and structural deterioration.
A professionally installed unit naturally transforms the problematic areas by maximizing expulsion, replenishment and circulation and then automatically maintains conditions.
Sensor Control
- Computerized sensor evaluates the ventilation and replenishment process; continuously assessing the changes in relative humidity, temperature and overall trend patterns.
- Reduces the ventilation rate when conditions are unfavorable and monitors trend changes in relative humidity. When the conditions resume to favorable trends the unit will automatically resume optimum ventilation for maximum results. All the while, it still operates at the lowest rate for healthy air exchange purposes.
- Increases air exchange process when relative humidity is lower such as at nighttime and decreases when it is extremely hot and humid outside and the air conditioning is working at maximum.
A ventilation unit is installed to pull in the most stagnant damp polluted air from the lowest point in the basement with the highest concentration of problems. Unit pulls in the most problematic air at the floor level and expels out odors, moisture, pollutants, gases (combustion, radon, etc. ) through a dedicated duct to the outside. Solution focuses on the source of the problems.

Replenish with relatively warmer, drier air from the upper level to raise temperature and lower relative humidity. A fresher healthier air supply from the upper level dramatically improves air quality. Installation focuses on utilizing a natural air flow pattern to transform the basement into a livable, comfortable area; comparable to upper living areas.

Ventilate the entire area extracting moisture and condensation. Unit creates an air circulation in entire house to keep structure dry, preventing moisture stagnation and providing a necessary healthy air exchange throughout the house, 6-10 times a day. As the moisture is drawn off the surface, the moisture absorbed in the walls, beams and floors comes to the surface and is then expelled. Continuous controlled ventilation will maintain moisture control, air quality and protect structural integrity.
