GENERAL
INFO
Ventilation
A primary cause of “sick house syndrome” is a negative air pressure
buildup, resulting from a lack of fresh-air exchanges throughout the
home. Negative air pressure can also contribute to mold growth.
To help eliminate these problems, Skuttle manufactures two ventilation
products:
• The Make-Up Air Diffuser supplies additional combustion air to appli-
ances that have inadequate combustible air sources.
• The Model 216 Make-Up Air Control automatically draws fresh, outside
air into the furnace, where it is filtered, heated or cooled, and circulated
through your home’s duct system. As a result, a slight pressure builds
up in the home, keeping untreated air from seeping in around the doors
and windows.
No wonder we call a home protected by Skuttle Indoor Air Quality
Products a “Happy House”. For more information, call us toll-free at (800)
