Rooflights will give your home a more sophisticated air, make it more energy-efficient, make it more eco-friendly and likely give it a tidy bump in market value. But those aren't the only benefits you'll enjoy after installing rooflights. One that is often overlooked is how effectively they improve ventilation and air quality in a home.
The Many Ways Rooflights Improve Indoor Air Quality and Ventilation
Here are just some of the ways rooflights will improve the air quality and ventilation in your home.
By getting the air moving
When opened rooflights create upward air movement, pulling air from rooms throughout the house and replacing it with fresh air from outdoors. If you really want to ramp up the ventilation open a couple of windows on the ground floor.
By bringing an end to stagnant air
Stagnant, foul air can make a home's interior something less than welcoming. You can try air fresheners to deal with the problem, but all they do is mask the problem. Opening a rooflight or rooflights for just a few minutes will pull all the stagnant air out of the house and leave it smelling fresh.
By removing cooking odours
Stagnant air is made all the worse when you add cooking odours to it. The longer they linger in the air the worse they get. When you open your rooflight to clear out the stagnant air it will also remove the noxious cooking odours in the process.
By making it easier to regulate indoor temps
All that delicious ventilation will not only clear the air of pollutants and freshen up the whole house, it will also make it easier to regulate the interior environment which will reduce the need to try and regulate it by using the heating or air conditioning systems.
By drying out the house
A lot of UK homes are beset by humidity issues. All that dampness inevitably leads to mould and mildew and the accompanying foul odours. The better ventilated your home is, the drier it will be. And a dry home is one that will no longer abide by mould and mildew.
