CR19: Indoor Air Quality Design and Control in Low-Energy Residential Buildings - EBC Annex 68 | Subtask 4: Current challenges, selected case studies and innovative solutions covering indoor air quality, ventilation design and control in residences | 2020 | English | 135 pp
CR18: Ventilation and Indoor Air Quality in New California Homes with Gas Appliances and Mechanical Ventilation | 2019 | English | 364 pp
Substantial energy is used to condition the air that enters California homes through leaks in the building envelope and ductwork - typically about a third of all heating and cooling.
CR 17: Indoor Air Quality Design and Control in Low-energy Residential Buildings- Annex 68 | Subtask 1: Defining the metrics | In the search of indices to evaluate the Indoor Air Quality of low-energy residential buildings | 2017 | English | 116 pp
The objective of present work was to develop the metric that assess the performance of solutions securing high indoor air quality in low-energy (modern) residential buildings.
Because buildings are responsible for 40% of energy use and 36% of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions in the EU, energy efficiency in buildings has become a priority to drastically reduce the energy use in buildings.
CR 15: Development and evaluation of a new test method for portable air cleaners | 2012 | English | 36 pp
The objective of this study was the development of a new test method for portable indoor air cleaners.
There exists a significant body of literature on energy and indoor air quality impacts of envelope leakage.
