Combine comfort with savings

By choosing a natural gas ventilation system, you are combining comfort and savings. In addition to supplying a controlled amount of clean air to your building’s common areas, natural gas ventilation equipment helps eliminate air currents, dust and dirt. The best part? It is less expensive to use than electricity, fuel oil or propane.

We made significant savings on our heating costs thanks to the new Énergir system — in fact, we saved close to $95,000.
