BREATHE BETTER WITH S&P USA VENTILATION SYSTEM
Indoor air quality (IAQ) has a direct impact on health, comfort, and overall well-being. Americans spend up to 90% of their time indoors, where pollutant levels can be two to five times higher than outdoors. Poor IAQ can lead to a range of health issues, from minor irritations like headaches and fatigue to serious respiratory problems and long-term illness.
At S&P USA Ventilation Systems, we believe clean air is essential. That's why we engineer high-performance ventilation solutions that help reduce indoor pollutants and maintain optimal airflow in commercial and residential environments. Our energy recovery ventilators (ERVs), exhaust fans, and inline fans are designed to improve indoor air quality while maintaining energy efficiency.
As people spend most of their time indoors, breathing in poorly ventilated air can cause a wide range of health and wellness issues:
As airborne contaminants build up without proper ventilation, people are more likely to contract illnesses spread by coughing and breathing.
Poor IAQ can cause allergies, headaches, coughs, asthma, skin irritations and breathing difficulties.
Harvard and Berkeley Lab found that high levels of CO2 negatively impacts thinking and decision-making.
Berkeley Lab found that deficient IAQ can cost $200 billion in debilitated worker performance and $58 billion in lost sick time.
As modern homes and commercial buildings become more airtight for energy efficiency, airborne contaminants build up and cause poor IAQ. Proper ventilation is key to improving air quality by bringing in fresh, outdoor air and removing stale, indoor air.
The easiest way to ventilate is by opening windows. However, natural ventilation isn’t always practical—in commercial buildings or in homes—during very hot, humid, or cold months. Mechanical ventilation strategies provide consistent, filtered airflow.
S&P USA Ventilation Systems provides exhaust-only, supply-only, and balanced strategies for any type of project.
Opening windows or doors to allow outdoor air in and indoor air out.
Exhaust fans (e.g. bathroom fans) remove and exhaust out contaminated air.
Supply fans bring in fresh air into the building or home.
Balanced ventilation exhausts out contaminated air and brings in fresh air into a building or home.
S&P USA Ventilation Systems offers a wide range of products designed to meet your specific IAQ needs:
At S&P USA Ventilation Systems, we go beyond equipment—we deliver air quality solutions that make buildings safer, healthier, and more comfortable. Whether you're a contractor, engineer, or homeowner, we’re here to help you find the right ventilation solution.
