If you’re like most people, you rarely think about the inner-workings of your Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system. But chances are you’re familiar with your vents. When your system’s vents are working well, they deliver perfectly conditioned air throughout your home, making you a happy, comfortable person. But when they’re not, you’re miserable.

If you’re energy conscious (like we are!), you might have considered opening and closing vents manually to save energy. It seems like a good way to make sure that conditioned air is delivered where it’s needed most. But if you ignore the changing dynamics of your system—things like indoor and outdoor temperature, flow conditions, and most of all pressure—you can do more harm than good.

At ecovent, we believe you shouldn’t have to think about all these complicated calculations—or to put up with an inferior solution. That’s why we’re releasing a new whitepaper today to inform you about the importance of real-time monitoring in vent automation. Any equipment you install in your home should do the hard work for you. And it should integrate with your existing system without comprising its overall integrity.

Anything less would be a waste of energy. And that’s the last thing we want.
