Can I close vents to deflect air?

• <div><p>No, because closing air vents could damage your HVAC system. Closing a vent will only keep the air in the duct, not redirect it to a room or zone where you’d prefer it to be. That air will become trapped within your ductwork, creating a buildup of pressure that can damage the ducts and cause leaks. </p></div>

Q: Does a finished basement need ventilation?

• <div><p>Although it&rsquo;s not required, air ventilation in a finished basement can help improve the air quality, prevent moisture and mold issues, keep musty odors away, and also maintain the air quality throughout the rest of your home. Proper ventilation will help maintain the value of your investment in finishing your basement. Try <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-improve-ventilation-basement-remodeling-project.htm">basement ventilation methods</a> like installing vents or a dehumidifier for best results.</p></div>

Q: Who sets the guidelines for air changes per hour?

• <div><p>The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers, or ASHRAE, sets the standard guidelines for air changes per hour in homes and businesses. The International Residential Code, or IRC, also sets ACH requirements for residences and bases those requirements off of ASHRAE standards plus climate specifics related to your location. </p></div>

Q: Can I block the return air vents on the floor or ceiling?

• <div><p>Blocking or closing return air vents on the floor or ceiling will not save money on energy bills and could place additional stress on the HVAC system. Installers strategically place return vents to ensure the best flow of air throughout the entire system, so keeping them open and free from blockages is important. Figure out <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-open-ceiling-air-vents.htm">how to open ceiling air vents</a> and return vents. Check them occasionally to ensure air can freely flow into them for maximum performance.</p></div>

Q: What happens if you don't follow an air duct cleaning schedule?

• <div><p>Failing to follow an air duct cleaning schedule can allow dust, allergens, and contaminants to accumulate. This can lead to poor indoor air quality and potential respiratory problems or allergies for occupants. Mold and mildew can develop in the ducts, posing serious health risks and creating unpleasant odors. Debris buildup can also restrict airflow, causing the HVAC system to work harder and reduce its efficiency.</p></div>
