This 90-minute webinar examines indoor air quality in existing homes and the role of mechanical ventilation in protecting occupant health, safety, and building durability. Topics include moisture and condensation, combustion by-products, depressurization and back-drafting, local exhaust, whole-house ventilation, balanced HRV/ERV systems, duct design, filtration, commissioning, maintenance, and homeowner education.
Participants will learn to evaluate existing conditions, recognize ventilation-related hazards, coordinate envelope improvements with combustion equipment, and select practical ventilation strategies for renovation projects. The program also reviews residential ventilation code requirements and installation practices that support reliable airflow and long-term system performance.
