43. The following text is in the jumbled order. Put the steps in correct order. Steps for Designing a Whole-House Ventilation System
Incorporate spot ventilation (i.e., exhausts in kitchens, bathrooms, and other rooms where pollutants are produced) and/or separate spot ventilation systems in the design, following ASHRAE recommendations and local building codes to control moisture and pollution generation at their source.
Air seal the house as much as reasonably possible, especially the foundation, garage, or other spaces from which polluted air could be drawn.
Choose building materials, paints, furnishings, etc., to minimize emissions of VOCs and other pollutants.
Consider hiring a specialist to select and design the whole-house ventilation system. Ideally, one engineer should design both the ventilation system and the heating and cooling system, especially if the ventilation system is to be integrated with the heating and cooling system.
Select a general ventilation design strategy appropriate for the climate. Consider the type of heating and cooling system to be installed, operating costs of the ventilation system, impact of the ventilation system on heating and cooling operating costs, installation costs, and the desire or need for filtered air (an important consideration for people with asthma, allergies, and other environmental sensitivities). Ensure that depressurization will not lead to moisture damage in wall cavities in humid climates or introduction of pollutants from outside the house, and that pressurization will not lead to moisture problems in cold climates.
Design the whole-house ventilation system and select appropriate equipment and controls to meet the determined ventilation requirement. In developing the design, keep operating costs (especially fan costs) as low as possible. Keep in mind the contribution of natural ventilation to a house’s ventilation requirement. Avoid providing excess ventilation because it can increase heating and cooling costs without significantly improving air quality.
Determine the house’s ventilation requirements by consulting ASHRAE and local codes. A continuous ventilation rate of50 to 100 cfm is typical.
After installation, balance and test the system. Make sure ventilation ducts are airtight, design air flows are achieved, control systems work as intended, and controls are clearly and permanently labeled with operating instructions. Provide a homeowner’s manual that covers operation and maintenance details, especially for heat-recovery ventilation systems and systems with filters.
Include both sensible and latent loads induced by the ventilation system in calculations for sizing heating and cooling equipment.
