States that in a tight house with a vapour barrier, an air management system is needed to provide fresh air and remove the build-up of moisture generated by the occupants. Briefly describes a typical air management system,incorporating an air-to-air heat exchanger, and discusses the need to provide an acceptable ventilation rate, which controls pollutant level but minimizes heat losses.
