Hello everyone,
we are building a KfW 70 house, which is economic even without a mechanical ventilation system.
Now, like many others, we are uncertain whether we really want to install a mechanical ventilation system. It has been planned, but the prices quoted are quite high... A decentralized system also seems to be similarly expensive due to the number of rooms and additionally causes quite a few holes in the nice facade...
Our heating engineer, who also installs ventilation systems, suggested installing fans in the exterior walls of the wet rooms (guest toilet and bathroom). These would be controlled by a switch and/or humidity sensors to extract the moist air from the rooms.
Additionally, a cooker hood with exhaust ventilation is recommended for the kitchen.
What do you think about this?
From a cost perspective, it does seem to be considerably cheaper.
