I’m based in Tokyo and have spent the past few months going down the rabbit hole of indoor air quality. It started out of concern for the health of our four-year old - lots of time indoors on account of the pandemic, etc.
We have HEPA filters in every room now and portable CO2, PM2.5, VOC monitors, etc for keeping an eye on things. As others have stated, however, this does nothing to address the VOC issue and so I am very keen to take the additional step of installing an Energy Recovery Ventilator or Heat Recovery Ventilator, as you suggest.
If anyone here has Japan or Tokyo-specific information on manufacturers, suitable systems and/or contractors capable of doing the work, I for one would certainly be grateful to hear it!
