Comments on the EECA home ventilation systems assessment

The EECA had a report done (Jan 2009) on the home ventilation systems available in New Zealand.

This report (like most reports) seems to be done from a perspective and reading other reports. Some of the writer's points of view are valid but still need discussing.

Over the next few weeks I will put my perspective across to allow open discussion on various sides of this debate and I welcome any comments on my points of view.

Have a look at http://www.easierventilation.co.nz/eeca-home-ventilation-systems-assessment.html which is where i've started, if you have any questions or specific points you would like me to cover please leave a comment below this blog or email me here .

Looking forward to opening up the areas of misunderstanding.

Have you ever thought that the more you insulate and double glaze a home the more stale air and moisture you will keep in your home?

Heat Pumps and Ventilation

Almost every day I get called to homes that have a heat pump and are still getting major condensation (mostly in bedrooms), Concidering these people have been told that the heatpump will remove all the condensation problems.
Heat pumps are great heaters, but not good dehumidifiers, unless they are on the cooling mode below 20 degC.
