Need a way to get fresh air inside

None of my windows open in the house.

  • The windows were definitely built with the house and I figured out, built into the house.

I would have to remove the siding in order to rip out the window. So that means if I want new windows, I have to buy from a company and have them install it. I have a lot of windows in my home. I also have a lot of large windows too. So the cost of the whole job would be so much money. It makes me sick to my stomach even thinking about it. However, I don’t think I can go on without being able to open my windows. Right now my boyfriend requires our HVAC unit to run 24/7. In the winter it is heating and in the summer it is heavy cooling. It circles the same, stale air over and over again. Have you read any stats on indoor air quality? The indoor air is so much more polluted than the outdoor air. I also own a cat and he uses litter. That is a lot of smells, hair and dust that is going into my ductwork and coming back out again. I don’t need an air purification system, I just need some fresh air. There are months at a time that would be good with fresh air only. I wouldn’t need to run the HVAC and I could save some money. I also would get cleaner air moving through the home and adding freshness. Right now my boyfriend and I leave our front door open. That just lets in bugs though.
