About Us

Built from the Ground Up. Engineered for the Air You Breathe.

Ventilate Me, LLC is a Maine-based company with a singular mission: to give every American family access to the same elite ventilation standards that Canada and Europe have required by code for decades. We do that through one meticulously engineered product — "Fresh Air in a Box."

The Founder

Jason didn't discover building science in a classroom. He grew up on job sites, working alongside his father — a custom home builder — from his early teens. He pulled nails, learned the craft, and absorbed a deep respect for what it means to build something right.

In 2001, Jason's own home was destroyed by fire. While rebuilding, his research led him across the border into Canada, where he discovered something that stopped him cold: high-performance ERV and HRV ventilation systems were already mandatory by building code — not just in Canada, but across Europe. Meanwhile, the United States had virtually no residential ventilation standards at all.

That discovery lit a fire that has burned for 25 years.

The Problem We Solve

For over a decade, Jason has owned and operated Insulation of Maine, a high-end insulation company based in Hancock, Maine. That work gave him a front-row seat to a quiet crisis unfolding inside American homes.

Modern construction techniques are making homes tighter and more energy-efficient than ever. That's a good thing — until it isn't. Airtight homes trap stale air, volatile organic compounds, and hazards like radon. Without proper ventilation, the very walls designed to protect a family become a sealed chamber of compromised air quality.

High-quality ERV and HRV machines eventually became available in the US market. But the hardware networks required to safely distribute that fresh air through a home? An afterthought. Contractors and DIYers were left spending days sourcing parts from multiple catalogs, piecing together mismatched components from hardware store shelves, and hoping it all worked.

Jason went into his Maine shop and fixed that.

The Solution: "Fresh Air in a Box"

Jason engineered his own proprietary, custom-built sheet metal manifolds. He sourced the absolute best 3-inch distribution ducting, exterior wall caps, and precision grills available anywhere. Then he packaged them into one complete, turn-key distribution hardware network — "Fresh Air in a Box."

No more sourcing from five different catalogs. No more guesswork. No more compromises. Everything a home needs to breathe — engineered, assembled, and ready to install.

"Fresh Air in a Box" comes in two purpose-built tiers:

The DIY Master Kit — For Homeowners

Designed for the homeowner with zero prior HVAC experience. Every component is color-coded so you instantly know which line is supply, which is return, and exactly which port it connects to. Specialty tools — including custom 3-inch and 6-inch hole saws and precision screws — are included. And every single component carries a unique QR code that launches a short micro-video showing exactly how to install that specific piece. A library of 25 to 30 step-by-step video snippets, built right into the box.

The Contractor-Ready Kit — For Professionals

A streamlined, no-redundancy kit that respects the professional's existing toolbox. The specialty tools are excluded — you already own them. What's included is the complete, high-performance hardware distribution network: custom sheet metal manifolds, 3-inch ducting, exterior wall vents, and interior precision grills. Everything your crew needs to deliver a world-class ventilation installation, without the days of sourcing and logistics that used to come with it.

Why It Matters

Jason is not building a product company. He is building a health company that happens to make hardware. He understands — from 25 years of working in and on homes — that stale air, radon, and trapped pollutants are not abstract risks. They are real threats to real families.

His mission is straightforward: ensure every family can breathe easy, live healthy, and thrive in their home.

That mission is built into every manifold, every duct, every QR code, and every kit that ships out of Hancock, Maine.
