A controlled, filtered supply of outdoor air
A fresh air intake ties outdoor air into your HVAC system through a dedicated, damper-controlled duct, so your home gets a measured amount of filtered fresh air on a schedule - not random drafts and leaks. We size and install it to ventilation standards so you get fresh air without wasting energy.
Why a dedicated fresh air intake matters
What you get with Nur HVAC:
- Fresh, healthier indoor air that never goes stale or stuffy
- Dilution of indoor pollutants, cooking odors, CO2 and VOCs
- Controlled, filtered intake instead of uncontrolled leaks and drafts
- Pairs perfectly with an ERV/HRV for energy-smart ventilation
Engineered into your system the right way
We design the intake, damper and controls around your equipment and home, then commission it so it delivers the right airflow automatically. Every install is backed by our 100% money-back guarantee.

Frequently asked questions
How is a fresh air intake different from just opening a window?
A window lets in unfiltered air, bugs, noise and lost energy whenever it's open. A fresh air intake delivers a measured, filtered amount of outdoor air through your HVAC on a controlled schedule - fresh air without the downsides.
Is the incoming air filtered?
Yes. The intake draws outdoor air through your HVAC filtration before it reaches your living space, so you get fresh air without pulling in extra dust and pollen.
Can I combine it with an ERV?
Absolutely - and it's often the best setup. An ERV recovers energy while ventilating, and a fresh air intake ensures a controlled outdoor-air supply. We design them to work together.

“Our 25+ years old gas furnace ran into issues and we could have just replaced the part and limped along for a while. We decided to do a like-for-like replacement...we got a quote (I won't mention the name of the vendor) and got a quote for a Bryant a/c/ gas furnace (lower than the Carrier a/c that we had) and the quote was pretty high ~ $25K and NO REBATES (this person did not even offer us the option of a heat pump). Our son suggested going to Yelp to get a project quote given we were spending so much money - from the 8 companies we talked to we zeroed in on Irbis and NUR and both companies were solid. Our main reason for going with NUR were the following : 1) With NUR we dealt directly with the Owner not a sales team : David - he is a no-nonsense, straight shooter who is extremely knowledgeable about all things HVAC. 2) Offered the right spec and quality of machine - He told us we should go with the Heat Pump (replace gas furnace) given we had solar and he offered us the complex split zoning for our single family house. Upgraded our carrier a/c to a Mitsubishi Heat Pump (see picture) 3) Reasonable Quote, High Quality work - He offered us an extremely reasonable quote for a high end heat pump, his technicians were top notch. Igor and Mikhail were brilliant - they spent a week at our place and were so polite, skilled and unobtrusive. They cleaned up after themselves every single day that they came in. 4) Helped me get the $3500 rebate from Peninsula Clean Energy 5) After install customer service is brilliant. I am doing this review after a month but these guys are beyond amazing when it comes to responsiveness to any questions or concerns. If I do any replacement of my HVAC and water heaters in the future - I will not look beyond NUR - they have my business for life”
“I had a great experience all around with Nur HVAC. Scheduling with Regina was a breeze, and Adlan, our technician, was fantastic. Adlan quickly diagnosed and fixed an issue with our 20-year-old AC unit on the spot without trying to upsell anything. Beyond the quick repair, he took the time to walk me through his process for diagnosing/assessing our AC system as well as the steps for a routine furnace maintenance - I learned a lot along the way. Highly recommend NUR HVAC, and especially Adlan!”
“Honest and meticulous. They quoted me a competitive price for work that they expected to complete within a few days. The time to finish the job increased, but the price did not. It's clear that they are *very* careful and detail-oriented during installation. Fedor and the rest of the team also make everything before the work very easy; figuring out what you want, advising what to do, and communicating about scheduling/logistics. Very happy overall, would recommend them without hesitation. My wife and I have already used them twice: adding a central heat pump and later augmenting it, in select rooms, with mini splits.”

“Nobody likes a broken HVAC component, but Nur is always there to help. They’ve helped me install a minisplit, diagnose a leak & recharge AC, and fix the filtration of air through the house. Ilias and Islam are both very capable and helpful, highly recommend.”
“This is my second experience with these awesome people. Nur HVAC installed a heat pump a year ago and I remembered how professional they were. So when my water heater broke few weeks ago I called them again. Fedor called me and came over the same day to personally inspect my setup. He gave me three options for my water heating needs and coached me through the selection process based on my current and future needs. This was Monday and by Wednesday I had everything fixed! As always, professional and courteous service. While Fedor was here I got to talk to him about options for more even heating and cooling distribution in my house. Even though it was not related to problem at hand, he patiently explained to me what my options were and then turned me onto a new solution using smart vents. This ended up being 10x cheaper than dual zoning and works a 100 times better. This guy is so smart, he must have a Ph.D. in HVAC!!! Thank you Fedor and I can’t recommend this team highly enough!!!”
“We used Nur HVAC to replace gas furnace with a heat pump inverter, replace the aging duct work and gas water heater with a heat pump water heater, all in the same contract. Our project manager, Arthur was on-time for the scoping appointment. He took time to understand our needs, investigated the attic, ducts and all the existing equipment, before making any recommendations. He designed the optimal system for our house to be cost effective, provide highest comfort and be energy efficient. He was not pushy and was upfront about the ballpark estimates and timeline. He also walked us thru the various rebates that are available for the replacements from local utilities. Arthur’s quote was very competitive, in fact better than those quoted to us by Costco referred contractors. Nur’s installation crew - Eldar, Bhakridin, were very professional and thorough. They didn’t rush the job and left the job site clean and clutter free each day. They accommodated our requests for placing the electrical wires and conduits so they are not in the way. All the equipment both indoor and outdoor were cleanly laid out, secured and wiped down before hand off. Always smiling and respectful, one of the best installation crew we have had. As a white glove contractor they took care of all the permitting, inspection paperwork w/ the city, all the paper work for us to receive the rebates. They even completed the warranty registration with the manufacturers for all the equipment! We would highly recommend Arthur and Nur HVAC to anyone in the Bay Area needing heating and cooling solutions. We would definitely be going back to them ourselves when the need arises.”
“Working with David and NUR was a wonderful experience. I changed out my gas water heater to a heat pump and my gas furnace to a more efficient one. David was exceptionally patient while I took over 6 months to decide on a system and never rushed me or pushed me to spend more money. In fact, when I changed my mind to a much less expensive system AFTER I already signed a contract and he had submitted a permit application, he completely supported my decision and didn’t act at all annoyed. After the units were both installed, he presented me a bill that was actually less than what he initially quoted because of different hardware used and a rebate he was able to get. His honesty is so refreshing. The work was done efficiently and the workspace was always kept clean when they left for the day. I continue with the high praises of this company and heartily recommend them!”
“With summers getting hotter every year, we finally decided to seek out someone to install an AC system. We opted to get everything done in one go, so we replaced an outdated furnace, installed new air ducts & vents, and decided on an efficient A/C unit. Nur HVAC was reasonably priced, not the most expensive, not the cheapest, but had the best communication, clear outline on the work being done, and the actual workmanship of the install was very professional. Very happy we went with this company. The attention to detail was top notch, service was friendly, and the equipment is so quiet we barely notice it when it's on. Only regret is not having done it sooner.”
“We had an excellent experience with this HVAC company from start to finish. Fedor was incredibly prompt and professional at every appointment, provided a clear, comprehensive job specification, and the pricing was very fair and transparent. They installed a Mitsubishi ceiling mini split, and the installation itself was flawless. His installer, Volodymyr, and the rest of the team truly went above and beyond — they could not have worked harder, nor been nicer or more conscientious in our home. They were respectful, detail-oriented, and left everything spotless. It’s rare to find a company that combines responsiveness, fair pricing, and such high-quality workmanship. We highly recommend them.”
“Last month, we contracted NUR HVAC to install three units of Mitsubishi ductless AC units to our house. The sales contact Artur was very professional, always addressed our questions very quickly and clearly. Their office support Regina was proactive and timely communicated important information for our awareness ahead of time. Their two technicians Maxim and Alksei have done done an excellent job to install the units and relevant pipes. We are very satisfied with the quality of Nur HAVC's work, their competitive price and excellent customer services, and definitely recommend this company for others who are seeking professionals to do the similar service. George and Amy from Redwood Shores, CA”
“NUR HVAC just completed installation of a Mitsubishi heat pump system in my San Francisco home, replacing a 38-year-old Lennox gas furnace. I couldn't be more pleased with the quality of the work and the professionalism shown during the process. In particular, I wanted to commend Artur and Vladimir, the NUR technicians who did the beautiful install. Both guys were extremely polite and respectful, for example, putting on shoe covers whenever they entered the house. Artur was also very fastidious in running the ancillary electrical feeds to my main service panel. What a neat job! Fedor, who came to do the initial assessment, was a great resource and answered all my questions regarding scheduling, warranty, maintenance, etc. He offered several options during the bidding process without any pressure to come to a quick decision or attempts at “upselling.” In the end, their quote was very competitive, and fair given the quality of the work and the final product. Being a Mitsubishi Diamond Contractor, NUR was able to offer a 12-year warranty on parts and labor. The bottom line is NUR is a top quality outfit and it was easy to see that they take great pride in their work and genuinely care about their customers. NUR may be the best contractor I’ve ever used. Definitely, 5-Star!”
“Over the last 10 years, we have had issues with our furnace. Every time, I've call the same local service for help. This time, I called Nur HVAC instead. And I'm glad I did. The technician, Adlan, was knowledgeable, thorough, and made observations that I haven't heard before. He performed maintenance, calibrated the gas (which had never been done before), and fixed our issue (without replacing parts). He then evaluated the system by running tests on the furnace and the checked the thermostat and the vents inside the house. Our system is running better than it has ever run. I can't be happier with Nur's service.”
