anyone know what you would expect indoor air quality levels for pm2.5 & pm10 to be when mvhr in use with highest level filters......
the same as outside
better than outside
worse than outside
thank you for any input
This scientific paper addresses internal air quality in Passive Houses with MVHR. It suggests a significant source of internal PM2.5 is cooking and that MVHR may be inadequate in removing such contaminants, even in boost mode. It also looks at contributors to air quality, such as CO₂ and formaldehyde.
It is a current paper, with a forthcoming publication date of 15 October 2018. The houses monitored for the study are in Colorado, USA.
