Whole Housing Ventilation Strategies
The purpose of this research was to provide a baseline for evaluating whole house ventilation strategies for manufactured homes. In general, airflow through homes, and its impact on building performance and homeowner comfort, is one of the most difficult building science phenomenons to quantify and predict. Research is proposed to establish whether or not existing whole house ventilation systems, once installed and operating in typical manufactured homes, exchange air with the outdoors at the rate that is specified in the HUD code and to consider options to improve system performance and cost efficiency. The development of a 'best practices' manual for whole house ventilation systems design, installation and operation is also proposed. Finally, follow-up research is proposed to determine if ventilation targets are being met.
