ᐅ Central mechanical ventilation with heat recovery: supply and exhaust air, door undercut

Hello.
We are currently planning the supply and exhaust air outlets for the (concrete) ceilings.
So far, the layout is as follows:
Basement: Exhaust air in all rooms except the storage cellar (currently no supply or exhaust air)
Ground floor: Dining/living/kitchen area (one open space) with both supply and exhaust air, office with supply air, bathroom with exhaust air
Top floor: Bedrooms and children's rooms with supply air, bathroom with exhaust air
A door gap of 5-8mm (0.2–0.3 inches) has been recommended for the room doors to avoid issues with air transfer.
Questions:
Are your ventilation concepts similar? Any experiences?
Does supply air work effectively only through air transfer under the door (in the basement, air would have to pass through the stairwell)?
What are your thoughts on the door gap (5mm (0.2 inches) seems common to me)?
Thanks in advance.

Assuming the supply air for the system in the technical room is not far from the outdoor unit of the air-to-water heat pump, does the noise then enter the house?

Assuming the fresh air intake for the system in the utility room is not far from the outdoor unit of the air-to-water heat pump, does the noise then "enter the house"? No, we have the fresh air intake located above the outdoor unit of the heat pump. There are no issues. In the main air duct, behind the central unit, there is a silencer, so at the respective supply air outlets in the rooms (to our ears) nothing can be heard. I find the central unit itself noisy, but outside the utility room it is not noticeable (we have a soundproof door with a drop seal; I don’t know how it would be without one).

And an 8mm (0.3 inch) gap—sorry, you will see everything through the bottom.

Soundproof also means airtight No, at least within the practically relevant audible range. There are specifically overflow elements with effective sound insulation (Planet Mine-S as an example).
