 Hi Kurt,
It's amazing how many people seem to have the same problem that I did before you installed the new system. When I told people why I was working from home  the day you did the install I found out I wasn't alone with mold and moisture problems. I must admit I was skeptical as I didn't think air flow could make that much difference. The very first morning I woke up and started checking windows for moisture. There was absolutely none! I also noticed before I even got out of bed that the air in the house smelled like towels I had dried outside. It's still new but 2 thumbs up so far. I will continue to spread the word and feel free to use me as a reference.
Happy Customer,

3/2/11  My ERV has worked out beautifully. (installed Oct 2009) I was a little concerned about the ERV's ability to remove bathroom moisture in the summer. It does not seem to be an issue!  Our cronic mildew problem in our bathroom has also disappeared.

Dear Kurt,     2/17/11
It seems to be taking care of my moisture problem. Also for the first time in ages, I haven't been waking up with a headache. (Which I've been having several times a week.) I haven't had a headache in over a week.
Thank you for the wonderful job you did.
Sincerely,
Patty,

Hi Kurt,
I'm just writing to tell you how pleased I am with my new air exchange system. I had my sisters over for a weekend and all three of them commented as to how well they had slept, in spite of the fact that two of them usually suffer from insomnia, and my oldest sister has an inability to sleep anywhere other than at her own home.  She has a super insulated house without any type of air exchange, hence a constant, stale smell prevails.  They said their good night's rest must be due to how "quiet" my home is. I'm quite certain it's more due to how "fresh" my home is thanks to my Fresh Air Ventilation system. Didn't they hear the wailing loons?  :)

And we appreciate the great installation Kurt completed. The air is crisper, and nicer to live with, and it has not apparently taken heat out of the heated portion of the house, as I feared it might. Good work. Thanks.  Peter  Winslow, ME  

Dear Kurt Johnson,

On behalf of my wife and myself, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the sale and installation of the Venmar heat recovery system. We couldn’t be more satisfied with every aspect of the job.

The unit seems perfectly sized for our house and has worked flawlessly during this "Old Time" winter we have been enjoying. With all the worrisome references to global warming, we are encouraged by the gains in efficiencies in this heat recovery system. The system not only recovers our valuable heat, but it is much more efficient at venting odors and vapor than our original, 15-year-old unit.

Thanks again Kurt for helping us take an environmentally responsible approach to maintaining our "shelter".

Best regards,

AL Hardy

PS. Feel free to use us as a reference in the future regarding the quality of the Venmar equipment or your professional approach to installations.

Hi Kurt,
Thank goodness you were able to get to us to determine the cause of our air ventilation system malfunction.  Replacing the motor and blower unit has made all the difference in the world.  When we first learned that air was not circulating in our house properly (as it had been for the previous five years), we noticed a difference in the quality of the air in the house, as well as the temperature evenness within the house.  Now, with the new unit installed there are no stale air pockets within the house and even on the coldest of days the temperatures within the house now seem that much more even and stable.  Thanks so much for your prompt response to our service call and for getting the needed replacement parts right to us.

Hi Kurt,
           Last year { May 2008 ) you installed a new air filtratration and ventillation system in our house, a Venmar Hepa 4100. We are very happy with it.
           My daughter and her kids were coming to visit with us for most of the summer, they live in Washington State, my grandaughter has lots of allergies and I was concerned for her well being. They were here for seven weeks and I want you to know that she had no problems at all, she had a very comfortable visit with us. While they were here, they visited other family members and my grandaughter had a serious flareup and had to leave one place. I'm happy to say " That never happened here ".
            You and your men did an excellent job, you were professional and accommodating. I would highly reccommend this system to anybody. We are all very happy and satisfied with it.
Respectfully,
Norm Blais,

Just want to tell you that we are great fans of the ventilation system that you installed in our new house (built by GOlogic) on Spruce Head Island in South Thomaston. This is the cleanest, most dust free house I have ever lived in. We also used as toxic free building materials and furnishing as we could. I have been able to almost stop taking allergy medications for the first time in years.

Hi Kurt!, We believe the system you installed has taken care of all issues as far as we know, nice clean air inside, so happy with the system!!! Thanks again! Carol B., Dover-Foxcroft

Hi Kurt,

"I really appreciate your help yesterday getting that air exchanger going. The air in this place is 100% better already. It was awfully stale without air exchanging going. It's a wonderful thing"

Hi Kurt,
Just wanted to give you an update...
The inline electrostatic filter you installed for us to filter out the
smoke from our wood stove from the incoming air is working GREAT!
Even when the wind is blowing the smoke right to the air intake while
the system is venting we can't detect any odor in the house.
Moreover, smoke from INSIDE of the house (opening the wood stove) seems to get filtered out when the system is in recirc mode. Does this make sense, or am I just imagining it?

In any case, we're very happy with how it's working... Thank You :-)
Thought you'd like to know, since you mentioned that you had another customer who had a similar issue with smoke coming in from a neighbors chimney.
Thx again, best wishes,
