Ventilation in the apartment

Ventilation in the apartment

In this article I will reveal how the ventilation is installed in the apartment and exhaust apartment, how to do it right. Below is the principle of how the ventilation device is carried out in the apartment:

To begin with, the calculation of the ventilation system is made: air exchange is calculated and the section of the air ducts is selected;

Next, the type of ventilation system (natural or mechanical) is made;

and at the final stage, a place for ventilation equipment is selected.

Which is better mechanical or natural ventilation?

For the comfort of staying in the room, not only the purity of the air, nor its optimum temperature is important. Another important role is played by the speed with which air moves, for the fluid comfort in the room- a lower speed of movement.

However, in some cases, without mechanical ventilation nowhere, because when there is a slow course of air, it is necessary to install a ventilation duct with a large section. But putting a large channel of a natural hood in the wall is not so easy. It follows that if the apartment has a large area, then a mechanical ventilation system is needed.The air exchange is much more powerful provides mechanical ventilation than natural. Therefore, the apartment in the apartment is the natural ventilation.

Air flow

When installing ventilation, it is necessary to make overcoming lattices in the doorway, thanks to which there is a trouble -free movement of air from the supply devices to exhaust. In the case when it was not designed in the doors for the outcoming grilles, then we leave a distance of at least 20 mm from the floor to the door, as it is indicated on the site .

For proper organized air exchange, it is necessary that the room, which is most contaminated, is the last. In view of this, making ventilation in the apartment, the hood, in most cases, is installed in the kitchen and in the bathroom.

Ventilation in the apartment

To begin with, the walls are installed inland, the ventilation ducts are installed, which have exits at the premises inside, and naturally outward. Drawing into the apartment of the outdoor air, will be made by one of the outputs. It is important to install this output two meters high from the foundation, in any outer wall. Another exit is designed to remove dirty air from the apartment. As a rule, it is installed in the attic and all the hood channels are brought to it. It is important that the exhaust pipe rises half a meter from the top of the apartment. On occasion that the apartment is large, these pipes can be placed several.

Ventilation ducts are made of metals that are not subjected to corrosion, in which smooth walls and cross -sections are rectangular. Outside and inside, the openings of the channels are sealed with a grill. It is also important to calculate the system in order to warm the air in winter. For this purpose, a heater is installed near the ventilation channel. But, it must be borne in mind that when the apartment is equipped, it is impossible to install a fruitful ventilation system. Such robots must be performed during construction, therefore, the ventilation system should be in advance in the draft documentation.

The location of the equipment of the ventilation system of recovery

In large apartments, such as penthouse, air exchange can exceed 800 m3/hour, therefore, the installations of mechanical ventilation systems will contain a fairly large size. Therefore, the ventilation of the apartment should be developed with the aim of determining the places where the ventilation equipment will be installed. It is advised to place it in the attic or in the technical basement. In the case when ventilation is installed in the attic, you need to do the insulation of the attic. This is done so that the ventilation equipment does not fail and to eliminate the freezing of the coolant.
