Clean, fresh air is one of the conditions for a comfortable life, but our apartments are not always distinguished by a good microclimate. The essential problem of many premises is their bad ventilation. Why is this happening?

In most apartment buildings of the old and new building, only natural ventilation (exhaust) is provided: through the entire vertical house there is a trunk ventilation channel, which can be connected from individual apartments. Such a system is characterized by simplicity and cheap device, but she has many vulnerable places.
1 sealed windows and doors
The air flows through the gaps and looser of window and door structures. If the owners change the old wooden frames on modern hermetic windows and glass windows, then the air flow will cease. Therefore, thinking about the installation of windows-glass packages, be sure to solve the question - from where you will take the trim air. It can be double-glazed windows with a ventilated section or window or additional intake systems.2 Difference Tepe Mans Inside and Outside
The intensity of the natural ventilation depends on the temperature difference inside and outside the room. In winter, this difference is large, and natural ventilation works well. In the summer, the temperatures are compared and the exhaust is practically not functioning. Sometimes there are situations in which the air begins to move back from the central ventilation channel to the apartment (the so-called "tipping of ventilation"). The old gtales were meant that the area of the room would be ventilated using open windows.
3 Unauthorized layout
Vertical trunk channels often suffer from unauthorized reprints. It can be like a complete channel overlap (now such scribuncing occasionally occur less frequently) and connecting to natural ventilation of powerful kitchen exhaust. As a result, the contaminated air comes from a neighbor to the neighbor.4 Dust and garbage
Vertical ventilation channels can be clogged by garbage and dust and for natural reasons. For dozens of years, their throughput can decrease to zero. If you have suspicion that the ventilation channels do not function, you should contact the management company, which monitors the state of the engineering networks at home.
5 Low Performance Ventilation System
Even fully utilized systems of natural ventilation differ in low performance. Natural ventilation is calculated on air flow rate of 80-90 m3 / h. For a comfortable life, this may not be enough. Therefore, the best way out will be the organization of the system of forced supply-exhaust ventilation.
