And How to Avoid Them – Expert Tips from Datevi
When it comes to installing ventilation in residential homes and apartments, many people make the same mistakes. These errors can lead to discomfort, excess humidity, mold growth, and higher energy bills. The experts at Datevi have compiled a list of the top 5 most common mistakes and explain how to avoid them.
1. ❌ No Ventilation System Design
Many people install ventilation “by eye,” without proper planning or calculations. This results in poor air exchange, noisy systems, or insufficient airflow.
Datevi Tip:
Always start with a project. Our engineers consider room volume, number of occupants, window insulation, and the local climate to ensure optimal performance.
2. ❌ Choosing the Wrong Ventilation Type
Natural ventilation is often chosen where it’s ineffective (e.g., in airtight apartments with plastic windows), while some install expensive mechanical systems where simple options would suffice.
Datevi Tip:
Every case is different. Sometimes a hybrid system with exhaust fans in the kitchen and bathroom is enough. Other situations require a full mechanical supply and exhaust system with heat recovery.
3. ❌ No Soundproofing
One of the most common complaints is the noise from the fan or airflow. This happens when soundproofing is neglected or poor-quality ducts are used.
Datevi Tip:
We use sound-absorbing ducts and high-quality fans, and carefully plan the layout to reduce noise levels as much as possible.
4. ❌ Neglecting Maintenance and Filtration
Even the best system loses efficiency without proper maintenance. Clogged filters reduce air quality and strain the equipment.
Datevi Tip:
We recommend maintenance every 6 months. Our systems are equipped with easy-to-clean filters or we offer professional servicing.
5. ❌ Ignoring Humidity and Heat Recovery
Many systems are installed without considering humidity or energy-saving heat recovery, resulting in poor indoor climate and wasted energy.
Datevi Tip:
Our systems with heat recovery return up to 95% of heat back into your home. We also offer humidity control solutions – especially important for bathrooms and kitchens.
