Congratulations to @CharlieLuxton for achieving 0.6 H-1@ 50 Pa on your home project! AT Eco are very proud to be a part of @CharlieLuxton new build project.
At the beginning of the video in the back of the shot theres vertical batons fixed to the structure of the home, how are they fixed? I'm assuming they're nailed/screwed on, does that not affect the membranes performance?
i don't understand why you would want an air tight house. Surely you will have issues with condensation build up leading to damp. Moisture needs to escape. I can only see this leading to bad air and health problems.
An air-tight house MUST have a MVHR unit, or a similar type of ventilation system, to ensure old, moist, stale air is replaced with fresh, clean, dry air. No architects or builders would allow an air-tight house to be built without such a system in the UK. Watch Charlie's video on MVHR to learn more.
@@HomebuildingMagazine thanks, lll have a look at the other video. I had a PIV system installed last year and it cleared up my condensation issues with a day.
Hi, interesting video. If I was to airtight a room that has a vent in the chimney breast as well as a high level air brick to vent a room how would I go about this? Obviously it wouldn’t be airtight but would be vented at the same time? Thanks
Don’t need heating, wears jacket, hat and scarf indoors. 😂
