Worth knowing

Good ventilation and indoor climate are vital for your health

Three of the most important needs we must satisfied as human are:

  • Food to eat
  • Liquid to drink
  • Air to breathe

We consume approximately 1 kg of solid food/day and drink approximately 3 liters of liquids/day. If you compare this to the fact that we breathe about 30 kg of air/day it is actually surprising how little we think about that. Most of us are very particular about the food and beverages we consume while the air we breathe do not get the same type of attention. Of the 30 kg of air that we breathe daily, 27 kg comes from indoor air (we are spending approximately 90% of our time indoors), and for that reason a good indoor climate is important for our wellbeing.

Indoor Pollution Sources

Examples of these include:

  • Radon
  • Building materials
  • Furniture
  • Electronics
  • Chemicals
  • People
  • Animals

We need to bring fresh air into our homes so that we do not suffer from illness. When using a balanced ventilation system you remove poorley used air and replaced with fresh filtered clean air, in this way you will get a very good indoor climate. Learn more about our FTX units here.
