Air-pressure DifferenceSort results by: Date Added | Alphabetically - The term airtight is often used to describe houses with very little natural air leakage. You can have an airtight house with plenty of fresh air flowing through it - if it has a mechanical ventilation system.
- Controlled ventilation by means of a mechanical ventilation system is the only way to consistently, reliably, and predictably exchange the air in houses.
- The relationship between air pressure, air movement and house tightness is integral to an understanding of how ventilation systems work.
- Clearly, if the sources of pollutants are minimized, the air will be easier to keep fresh, clean and healthy.
- How to make homes tight and ventilate right.
- The Home Ventilating Institute (HVI) offers guidelines on how to select the right ventilation system for your home, how much air it should move and why, types of ventilation systems, and where to get more information on ventilation standards.
- These terms are used somewhat interchangeably, which is confusing. HVI shows how to tell them apart.
- The harmonious interaction with nature is the guiding principle of the Building Biology approach to healthy home building.
- With the ill effects of poor indoor air quality often in the news these days, it pays to
design and build a house that’s healthy from the start.
- Understanding the physics of indoor air movement for a healthier home.
- What is known about tight construction, why it is a good idea, and how it is integral to systematic house design and construction.
- The Home Ventilating Institute, HHI\'s education partner, answers a tough home ventilation question.
