Yeah but what is a healthy Air Changes per Hour (ACH)?
The building regs here in the UK are a bit all over the place, I had to direct some questions to the local authority planning dept because their legislation was like a poorly written computer program and they couldnt answer the questions.
The legislation doesnt quantify the risks properly imo, at least here in the UK.
The houses I’ve seen control the exchange rate with air quality sensors - so, if you are having a party, the ventilation speeds up, and when the house is empty it slows down.
Yeah but its not measuring the quality of the air. Houses are just passive particulate collecting devices, ie particulates travelling on the air outside, move into the house, meet a stationary or slower moving body of air, lose momentum and velocity and thus succumbs to the effects of gravity and hits a surface.
Considering woman have traditionally been the one's cleaning the house for the living abode for hundreds of years, why havent they come up with something better to filter the air inside a property seeing as there is this push to get females into STEM?
This article is about passive houses, which have very good ventilation (they have to, because the building is hermetically sealed apart from the HVAC). So the air quality is much better than normal homes without a dedicated ventilation system.
