The Importance of Good Ventilation this Summer – with the help of Amplimesh®

As summer has arrived, air ventilation is necessary for Australians, providing a more comfortable, energy-efficient, and healthier home. Installing high-quality windows and doors helps ensure a steady fresh air flow in and throughout your home. With over two million Australians choosing Amplimesh® to secure their homes, it is clear that Amplimesh security doors and window screens are Australia’s first choice for keeping their homes safe and providing adequate ventilation. Whilst our security screens and doors are excellent at keeping intruders out, they are also ideal for keeping your home ventilated at the same time. 

What is Air Ventilation?

First, let’s explore the idea of ventilation in the home. Ventilation refers to the process of providing a room with ‘clean’ or fresh air to keep moisture, pollutants and allergens out of the home. Breathing in air that has been in circulation in the home for a while can be harmful to your health and can damage your home. There are many ways you can improve air ventilation in your home: 

• Keep windows and doors open when possible 
• Ensure the kitchen fan is on when cooking 
• Turn on bathroom fan when showering 
• Use ceiling fans to increase airflow and ventilation in your home

Below are some reasons why good ventilation is essential for your home:

Personal Health and Wellbeing

One benefit of good ventilation is its positive impact on your health and wellbeing. Pollen levels are the highest in late spring and early summer. Homes with good ventilation minimise the impact headaches, asthma, and seasonal allergies, such as hay fever, will have on your body. Wellbeing is fundamental to our health and overall happiness. Continuous airflow in your home can help make you feel more relaxed, clearing your mind and relieving tension.

Temperature Control

During these hot summers, your home can be a retreat from the beaming sun. Ventilation helps manage indoor temperatures, eliminates the stuffy and humid environment, and allows rooms to cool down without needing costly air conditioners or electric fans. All Amplimesh® products, SupaScreen®, IntrudaGuard®,  PrivacyGuard®, and Diamond Grille, offer the comfort of fresh air flowing through your home with clear and unobstructed outdoor views. With their marine grade stainless steel and high security standards, you will feel safe keeping your window and doors open this summer. Unlike flyscreens, which are great for keeping bugs out, our security screens will keep more than just pesky flies away. Allowing you to leave your windows and doors open all day long. 

Moisture Control 

Mould growth from excess condensation introduces allergens into the house, which can significantly impact your health. Not only this, but the cost to repair and replace affected surfaces can be very expensive. Ventilation can stop moisture from being trapped and reduce the likelihood of mould growing in your home. SupaScreen® is made of genuine Meshtec high tensile 316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel woven into a fine mesh, allowing a solid airflow into your home and preventing condensation, residue and mould in your home.
