Floor grates (also called registers or grilles) protect ducts, control airflow, and serve as a visible design element. Choose materials and finishes that fit your HVAC needs and interior style, measure openings carefully, and consider professional restoration for antiques.
Whole-home air purifiers integrate with HVAC or ductwork to clean air throughout a house. Modern systems combine multi-stage filtration, quieter fans, and smart controls to reduce particles, allergens, and some gases while requiring regular maintenance and proper selection.
Practical guidance on choosing a portable air purifier: pick a True HEPA unit sized for your room, consider activated carbon for odors, check CADR and filter costs, and weigh portable versus whole-house options.
Choose the right humidifier for your space by matching type and capacity, prioritizing built-in humidity control and regular cleaning to prevent mold and mineral buildup.
Patio enclosures (sunrooms) expand living space affordably if you choose the right glazing, framing, and HVAC. Costs and resale value vary by region; prioritize energy performance and check local permits.
Heater vents (registers, grilles, diffusers) cover duct openings in floors, walls, and ceilings. Registers have dampers to control airflow; grilles do not. Materials include steel, aluminum, plastic, and decorative options. Routine cleaning and proper balancing keep systems efficient.
