Does it make sense?
Not really. It’s either all or nothing.

Is that a disadvantage?
No, it just needs to be calculated, and the device selected or sized accordingly.

On which side of the house exterior wall are the supply and exhaust vents installed?
That depends on the lunar phase. 😀 Just kidding. Since we usually have westerly winds here in Central Europe, it makes sense to place the fresh air intake on the west side and the exhaust vent on the north, south, or east side. Or the other way around: exhaust on the east and fresh air intake on the north, south, or west side. Apparently, there are also combination covers that allow both vents on the same wall without causing problems.

Or what do you mean, @Snowy36?

So your basement is insulated and built with masonry? In that case, it should lose very little heat…. For an uninsulated cold room, the connection wouldn’t work well if you bring warm air in during the summer…. But with an insulated basement, it normally doesn’t get cold enough for that.

But with an insulated basement, it usually never gets cold enough for that.Yes, exactly, insulated and built with masonry.So should I connect the basement as well?
Good evening,
I’m joining in here and didn’t want to start a new thread since it’s pretty much the same topic. I installed a 100mm (4 inch) PVC pipe through the wall in the bedrooms and built a box with pipes for a portable air conditioner. Now I want to do everything properly. I’ve been searching online for about an hour but can’t find anything useful. I have now run a Zehnder ComfoTube flat 51 ventilation duct all the way down to the basement and installed a 4-way distributor on the ceiling in the hallway. The ceiling will be lowered by 20cm (8 inches). Now I’m looking for a control system for the rooms that allows me to regulate the airflow.
My basement is above ground, not underground. I want to install an outdoor unit there and an evaporator in the basement where the ducting will be connected. Even with the heating system, the basement is noticeably cooler.
Thanks
Regards
Alex
