ᐅ Extremely dry air caused by ventilation heating – what can we do?

Hello,
I hope someone can offer us some advice.
In 2010, we built a Weberhaus using the so-called Wohlfühlwärmetechnik (comfort heating technology). This involves a Proxxon ventilation heating system with heat recovery from Zimmermann.
Every winter, we have the problem that the indoor air becomes extremely dry. And by extremely, I do not exaggerate. The colder the outside temperature, the drier the air inside. Measurements show humidity levels between 25-35 percent.
As a result, we all suffer from respiratory issues during the winter, to varying degrees. This is especially difficult for the children.
Neither Weberhaus nor Zimmermann have been able to help us with this problem.

Is there anyone here who has had a similar experience and/or a solution?
Are there modules or systems that can be installed to humidify the air?

Regards,

To what extent is this heating technology really "controversial"?
The first systems have been in operation for several years now—are there any reasonably objective studies or reports on the actual advantages and disadvantages of these heating systems? Perhaps the "project team from Bosch" could share their current knowledge with us?

As a potential homeowner in the planning stage, I find it extremely difficult to find a dispassionate presentation of this topic and to draw conclusions from it...

Are there any good summaries available that explain what benefits and/or drawbacks come with the different heating systems, especially ventilation-based heating? Some "rumors" persist (such as germs in the pipes, exhaust air being pushed back, difficulties in regulating temperature, etc.)—but it’s hard to determine what is really true. Or am I overlooking obvious reports or studies? (And what alternatives exist, with their pros and cons?—probably there is no "perfect" solution, otherwise everyone would use it,...)

Thank you very much and best regards,
Björn

Hello Joela,

From your above post, we understand that your house is heated using a ventilation-based heating system.

We are a young project team working for Bosch Thermotechnik GmbH, examining the advantages and disadvantages of ventilation-based heating.

You have probably gained some experience in this area. Would you be willing to share it with us?

You can decide the extent and method of communication (email, phone, face-to-face, etc.). We look forward to your reply!

Best regards,

Hello,
who was involved in the project?
I also work at Bosch and would like to know what I can do.
We are having serious issues with a Proxon system!!

Hello Lüftung_2018,

You are welcome to share my email address: ms_jcs@gmx.de
Would that be alright?
I have a service technician from the company responsible for the air heating system on site this Tuesday, in case that is relevant.

Thank you very much and best regards,
