Still not sure how post-Covid, we haven't concluded that improving indoor ventilation should be a massive public health priority.
- dan_quixote 4y agoBecause it's difficult. How do you solve for this problem in a house without internal ducting in temperature extremes throughout the year?
- rendang 4y agoI'm curious, how long has ventilation ducting been part of housing codes, in other words how old are houses that have that problem?
- parkingrift 4y agoMany (most?) houses in the north/north-east do not have ducts. It's very rare for me personally to come across central air in the NY area.
- yamtaddle 4y agoSeems like there'd be a lot of tension between that goal, and reducing energy use.
- meatmanek 4y agoIt's not 100% solvable, but it's possible to recover a lot of the thermal energy of the air you exhaust and put back into the air you're intaking: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_recovery_ventilation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_recovery_ventilation
