Abstract: Results are presented which show the effects of three types of mechanical ventilation systems on a detached house. The effect of sealing the windows and external doors has also been investigated. All the systems lead to air change rates much greater than the design rate for this particular house. The least attractive is the extract plus supply system. The sealing measures only reduced the natural ventilation rate by about a third.
