PrimoAire/Calei – FAQ

Who is Calei?

Calei, operating under PrimoAire, LLC, specializes in advanced indoor air quality (IAQ) solutions for both residential and commercial applications. Our product line includes precision-engineered IAQ equipment designed to remediate airborne contaminants and environmental imbalances. When integrated with the PrimoAire Monitor, the system becomes a fully automated IAQ platform capable of intelligently managing air purification, sanitization, ventilation, filtration, and dehumidification—all within a single, compact unit optimized for straightforward installation by HVAC professionals.

What is CaleiVent?

CaleiVent is an all-in-one smart ventilation system that improves indoor air quality by bringing in fresh outdoor air, filtering it, managing humidity, and reducing CO₂—without sacrificing energy efficiency.

How does CaleiVent improve indoor air quality?

It continuously monitors key air quality indicators—humidity, CO₂, VOCs, dust, and temperature—and automatically responds. It removes stale, humid indoor air and replaces it with filtered, dehumidified outdoor air.

What makes it different from other ventilators?

CaleiVent combines ventilation (with optional dehumidification) and smart monitoring in one sleek unit. It integrates seamlessly with your HVAC system and can be managed remotely via the Calei mobile app.

Will it help me save on energy bills?

Yes! With a Calei Subscription, CaleiVent operates only when needed and reduces the load on your air conditioner by intelligently managing indoor humidity—resulting in noticeable energy savings.

What is included with the Calei Subscription?

Can I control it from my phone?

Absolutely. The Calei app lets you monitor air quality, adjust ventilation settings, and create schedules—from anywhere.

How big is the unit?

Is it easy to install?

Yes. CaleiVent is designed for quick installation by professional HVAC technicians and integrates seamlessly with most residential systems.

Does it work in any climate?

Absolutely. Whether you're in a cold northern region or a humid southern climate, CaleiVent keeps your indoor air balanced and fresh. With the H-Cell compressor dehumidification option, it can either dry incoming outdoor air or recirculate and dehumidify indoor air as needed.

What maintenance is required?

Minimal. We recommend replacing the air filter every six months. The app will notify you when it's time.

Can I use CaleiVent without a central HVAC system?

Yes. While CaleiVent performs best with central HVAC systems, it can also operate independently in certain homes and climates as a stand-alone air quality solution.

Can CaleiVent work without the IAQ Monitor and Subscription?

Yes. CaleiVent includes a built-in switch that allows it to function effectively in nearly any size home—even without the IAQ Monitor or Subscription. Our Hublay Control system features an internal priority algorithm that intelligently manages ventilation and dehumidification to maintain healthy indoor air conditions.
