Hello,

I’ve been trying for a while to determine the space requirements in the utility room for a central ventilation system. Could you name some common manufacturers? That might help me move forward.

We are currently planning the sizing of the utility room in the basement.

It will need to accommodate:

- Washing machine
- Dryer
- Gas condensing boiler
- Main unit of the central residential ventilation system
- Unclear: whether a water storage tank (connected to solar) will be installed there

Additionally, I’m interested in the space needed for a modern gas condensing boiler.

Thank you in advance.

Is your attic located within the airtight layer?

Yes, it is a fully finished attic with basement replacement rooms and two study rooms.

For heaven’s sake, if all central ventilation systems require that much space, then I won’t be able to fit it in.

Yes, for example on the ceiling – it can be done more economically – but it needs to be adapted to the local conditions.

@nordanney Is there a screed layer on the attic floor? Is the attic heated?

The pipes in the photo are huge. I wasn’t expecting them to be that big. Could you maybe show a comparison of how yours look?
