Sinopsis

About 10% of New Zealand homes invest in some form of retrofitted ventilation system. But do you really need one, and if so, what for? In this cast I talk about how to tell if your house is leaky or air-tight depending on it's age, two basic types of ventilation systems and the common symptoms that cause people to want to install a ventilation system.  Steps to take when considering ventilation are: What's your problem? What's your house type? Insulation Draughts  Adequate heating Extraction of moisture at the source Whole-house ventilation To get independent advice, talk to a Homestar Practitioner: http://homestar.org.nz/services Also, check out two of my other favourite podcasts: Tim Reid at Small Business Big Marketing http://smallbusinessbigmarketing.com/ Natalie Cutler-Welsh and Jacqui Lockington at If Only They'd Told Me http://www.ifonlytheytoldme.com/ Would you like to be part of Home Style Green?
