Ventilation system: the most common varieties

The ventilation system is one of the most important elements of any apartment, house, office and industrial building, which ensures the cleanliness of the air in the room and the absence of extraneous (harmful) odors.

First of all, you need to determine the type of system. Ventilation can be different: natural, artificial, supply, exhaust, general exchange or local. Let's start in order. The natural ventilation is provided by the strength of the wind and the difference in temperature inside and outside the room. In this case, it depends on the material from which the building was built. The best way is to let the air through brick and wood. To the given type of ventilation is also the ventilation of the premises with the help of the ventilators and the transoms. However, it is ineffective if the street temperature is too high.

Very often in apartments an artificial ventilation system is additionally used. It is provided with special equipment. Special equipment can supply air to the room and take it from there. In this case, you can set the frequency of its cleaning and the amount of feed. The presented system does not depend on changes in the environment. However, such ventilation requires additional energy costs.

Air purification systems are often mixed, because you will not find any apartment in which there would not be at least one window open and the hood was not standing. The supply ventilation system is popular. It allows you to replace the exhaust air with fresh. In this case, special equipment can heat or cool it.

The exhaust ventilation system ensures only the removal of polluted air from the room. During the design of houses it is necessary to take into account several types of cleaning the room space of odors. In this case, the equipment can provide local cleaning (only one room), and can provide general exchange ventilation. The second type is used in offices and other large premises. The first type is used to a greater extent in living quarters: kitchens of houses and apartments.

The system of supply ventilation is most often arranged in cottages. Although it should be supplemented with other types of air purification indoors. In the cottage, as in any other building, bad smells accumulate, which can negatively affect human health. Especially modern materials that are used in construction, prevent the normal air exchange in the rooms. Therefore, the presented air purification systems are mandatory elements in the arrangement of a country house.

The ventilation system of cottages of supply air type can also be divided into several types: monoblock units with a fan are used for premises that do not have a large area. For houses that are large, whole structures are used, which include various equipment that purifies the air. The most common device is still a channel air conditioner, which can cool or heat the room.
