Controlling ventilation and maintaining good indoor air quality

August 5th, 2010 5 Comments

If a house is made airtight, ventilation becomes critical to maintain air quality. To achieve good ventilation conditions, stale, humid, contaminated, oxygen depleted air needs to be removed from where it is generated and fresh air needs to be supplied to all habitable rooms. This is difficult to achieve and to control ventilation by simply opening windows or by depending on small permanent vents. Wind conditions vary, where some exterior surfaces will be exposed to face positive wind, blowing against the house. Simultaneously, other lea-ward surfaces are in negative pressure causing suction effects. This can occur where chimneys downdraught and create conditions of smoke fumes.
