TABLE OF CONTENTS 02 How Indoor Air Affects Us 01 How Important Is Ventilation Solar Powered Exhaust 04 03 About Us One is that proper ventilation reduces condensation. If there is not enough airflow inside the home, condensation builds up inside and will eventually lead to the production of mold or a damp atmosphere. Another key reason is that proper airflow promptly removes unwanted odors from indoors as well as provides a proper room condition for gas stoves, boilers and fuel induced equipment to properly burn. If vents are blocked off, the air in the room will be used up and lead to suffocation. Ventilation is therefore important to regulate airflow and rid it of unwanted odors within a home or an establishment. Lastly, proper ventilation helps improve health as well as comfort inside a workspace. When people are confined in an enclosed space, the area can become hot and stuffy. A ventilated room is more comfortable because of the regulation of air that will induce a more productive workplace. And that is why it is important that property owners should be aware of the ventilation conditions in their property and to check that the vents are sited correctly, sufficient, and in good working order. HOW IMPORTANT IS VENTILATION? 1 Most people usually spend majority of their time indoors because most of their daily activities take place inside homes and other establishments. Since the majority of people’s daily routines are done indoors, the atmosphere inside homes and establishments has a great impact on the health and safety of the population. Even more so today during quarantine, where people are forced to stay inside their homes and adult workers are forced to work from home. Proper ventilation is critical to one’s comfort and safety because it prevents air pollutants from affecting the health of the occupants. In addition, having proper airflow inside a home or establishment can remove any unwanted odors as well as maintain the health and safety of its dwellers. Unfortunately, not many people understand the importance of proper ventilation and tend to block them because they assume that more vents meant more drafts indoors. But there are some key reasons as to why proper ventilation is regarded as necessary inside an establishment.

It refers to a number of conditions in which the majority of people feel comfortable. Thermal comfort is rated amongst the most important conditions for improving comfort and satisfaction of occupants with their indoor environment. Thermal comfort affects the work performance. Thermal conditions can affect the house occupant's productivity and work performance through several mechanisms. Thermal discomfort can: Thermal comfort is more than just temperature. Thermal comfort is mainly influenced by four environmental factors which are needed to maintain a healthy balance in order to sustain the occupants’ satisfaction with their surrounding environment. TEMPERATURE AND THERMAL DISCOMFORT Installing a proper ventilation provide better thermal comfort inside abodes. Making sure that there are good indoor air circulation and also preventing indoor air build up that causes the air temperature to rise. One of the best option is to install a ventilation system that is designed to provide continuous ventilation, especially those that are designed as a whole-home ventilation system. Thermal comfort plays a large role in the way we experience the places where we live and work. Comfortable building occupants are happy, healthy and productive. “When properly recognized and addressed, thermal comfort complaints can result in better productivity and lower energy costs,” w w w . b u i l d i n g s . c o m ( S o u r c e ) O n " T h e R o o t C a u s e s o f T h e r m a l C o m f o r t " 4 The highest heat index recorded just recently within 2022 is 55° degree Celsius on May 2, 2022. On Dagupan City, Pangasinan. Although it is not the actual temperature in the Philippines, it is what we actually feels it to be like. When we say heat index or apparent temperature, it is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature. This has important considerations for the human body's comfort. When the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off. But in actuality, the highest temperature recorded in Manila is 35.9° degree Celsius, based from Philstar Global.

Many human physiology studies in the past have determined that human comfort results from three fundamental factors: In order to provide a total comfort system in your ideal home or office, you need some kind of radiant heating and cooling system, an air moving ventilation system and some form of room humidity control system. Some examples of Surface or Objects that emits radiant heat are: HOUSE SURFACE TEMPERATURE DID YOU KNOW? 01 02 5 Heat stress occurs when our body is unable to cool itself enough to maintain a healthy temperature. Normally, the body cools itself by sweating, but sometimes sweating isn’t enough and the body temperature keeps rising. Overexertion in hot weather, sun or bushfire exposure, and exercising or working in hot, poorly ventilated or confined areas can increase your risk of heat stress. Heat can also make an existing medical condition worse, for example heart disease. HEAT STRESS 03 Indoor air quality is the air quality within and around buildings and structures. IAQ is known to affect the health, comfort, and well-being of building occupants. Poor indoor air quality has been linked to sick building syndrome, reduced productivity, and impaired learning in schools. Common pollutants of indoor air include: Secondhand tobacco smoke, air pollutants from indoor combustion, molds from moist clog and other allergens, carbon monoxide, and other bacteria, carbon dioxide, ozone and particulates. INDOOR AIR POLLUTION BUILD-UP Indoor workplaces are found in many working environments such as offices, sales areas, hospitals, libraries, schools and preschool childcare facilities. At such workplaces, no tasks involving hazardous substances are performed, and they do not include high-noise areas. Nevertheless, employees may feature symptoms belonging to the sick building syndrome such as burning of the eyes, scratchy throat, blocked nose, and headaches. These afflictions often cannot be attributed to a single cause, and require a comprehensive analysis besides the testing of the air quality. One way of quantitatively ensuring the health of indoor air is by the frequency of effective turnover of interior air by replacement with outside air. In the UK, for example, classrooms are required to have 2.5 outdoor air changes per hour. It is recommended to install a ventilation system on your home or site. Ventilation helps remove or dilute indoor airborne pollutants coming from indoor sources. This reduces the level of contaminants and improves indoor air quality (IAQ). Carefully evaluate using ventilation to reduce indoor air pollutants where there may be outdoor sources of pollutants, such as smoke or refuse, nearby. Do you suffer from allergic reaction from dusts and other particulates? Are you worried about airborne spread of infection when someone is sick among your home? Then you have to make sure you have a well-ventilated home or site! e n . w i k i p e d i a . o r g / w i k i / I n d o o r _ a i r _ q u a l i t y ( S o u r c e ) w w w . e p a . g o v / i a q - s c h o o l s / c o n t r o l l i n g - p o l l u t a n t s - a n d - s o u r c e s - i n d o o r - a i r - q u a l i t y - d e s i g n - t o o l s - s c h o o l s ( S o u r c e ) w w w . e p a . g o v / i n d o o r - a i r - q u a l i t y - i a q / i m p r o v i n g - i n d o o r - a i r - q u a l i t y ( S o u r c e ) 6 increase mood and productivity enhance concentration and memory reduce stress and fatigue In 1989, NASA discovered that houseplants can absorb harmful toxins from the air, especially in enclosed spaces with little air flow. This study has been the basis for newer studies about indoor plants and their air cleaning abilities. While plants have less horse power than air purifiers, they’re more natural, cost effective, and therapeutic. Plants are also known to: This makes it a good combination with an exhaust ventilation inside homes! AIR CLEANER VS. EXHAUST VENTILATION Air Cleaner or most commonly called Air Purifier are designed to clean and re-use existing indoor air in a room. While ventilation system varies from Supply and Exhaust type. Exhaust type are those that are effective in preventing indoor air build- up, replacing existing indoor air with an outdoor air. There are many types and sizes of air cleaners on the market, ranging from relatively inexpensive table-top models to sophisticated and expensive whole-house systems. Some air cleaners are highly effective at particle removal, while others, including most table-top models, are much less so. Air cleaners are generally not designed to remove gaseous pollutants. It is recommended to use Air Cleaners in the condition where the room or house is closed off and is air conditioned. Ventilation system such as exhaust are best on condition with an open windows and doors, this way the outdoor air can get inside abodes.

Keep the exhaust fans turned on for an hour after your visitors leave to help remove virus particles that might still be in the air. Turn on the exhaust fan. Exhaust fans that vent outdoors can help move air outside. They can improve air flow and keep virus particles from being concentrated in one place.
