You must attend to several essential details when designing a new house. One is the ventilation. This consists of removing the moist and/or stale air from a home’s interior. It then replaces it with fresh air from outside. Sufficient ventilation is vital in preserving a healthy habitat. If you don’t get it right it can affect the health of inhabitants.

You usually ventilate structures using a blend of controlled and uncontrolled processes. The former is very popular in new homes. Another option would be a passive system. However, this is something you must design from the start of the project.

Uncontrolled ventilation

Trickle vents and airbricks are the most common option here. You can see them on the majority of current houses. Both adhere to building regulations and aren’t expensive to install.

Something you must remember is that you need to leave trickle vents in the open position. This will provide you with the necessary ventilation. You also have to open interior doors. Such action will let the air flow through your house and enables cross ventilation.

Controlled ventilation

The most controllable systems are those active with fans. They create negative or positive pressure in your home. Usually, the systems need the correct ductwork to allow the system to service the whole structure.

Passive ventilation

This third option depends on natural buoyancy or prevailing wind. As a result if you want to use it you must ensure the home is orientated properly. It can also affect the design and layout.
