We are increasingly noticing the effects of global warming. We know we can also do something ourselves to counteract it. Among other things, we can travel less often by car, eat less meat and use energy sparingly. With the latter, the government has helped us. The imposition of higher environmental requirements for new houses was in fact a consequence of the 1973 energy crisis. This created a veritable wave of insulation. Since this time, modern homes are so well insulated that heat can no longer be lost through cracks and holes. The downside of this is that it also prevents fresh air from entering the house. However, we need ventilation to stay healthy. On the other hand, we all want to ensure that the environment does not deteriorate even further. In this blog, we answer the question of whether ventilation is environmentally friendly.
