Laundry hung on a clothes line in a drying room (dehumidifier in the background and duct for ventilation in the ceiling) Drying room with clothes pegs on the walls and clotheslines in the ceiling. A drying room is a room intended for drying objects. It can act as a replacement or complement for drying cabinets, tumble-dryers, and outdoor drying ...
In the U.S., every plumbing fixture must also be coupled to the system's vent piping. [1] Without a vent, negative pressure can slow the flow of water leaving the system, resulting in clogs, or cause siphonage to empty a trap. The high point of the vent system (the top of its "soil stack") must be open to the exterior at atmospheric pressure.
[29] In a DCV system, CO 2 sensors control the amount of ventilation. [30] [31] During peak occupancy, CO 2 levels rise, and the system adjusts to deliver the same amount of outdoor air as would be used by the ventilation-rate procedure. [32] However, when spaces are less occupied, CO 2 levels reduce, and the system reduces ventilation to ...

Displacement ventilation is best suited for taller spaces (higher than 3 meters [10 feet]). [2] Standard mixing ventilation may be better suited for smaller spaces where air quality is not as great a concern, such as single-occupant offices, and where the room height is not tall (e.g., lower than 2.3 meters [7.5 feet]).
[citation needed] Some facilities are being designed using desiccant wheels with gas-fired heaters to dry out the wheel enough to get the required dew points. [ citation needed ] On those systems, after the moisture is removed from the make-up air, a cooling coil is used to lower the temperature to the desired level.
Without proper ventilation, humidity can cause interstitial condensation within the roof fabric; this can lead to serious structural damage, wet or dry rot, and can ruin insulation. Condensation within the roof space is much more of a problem today due to: much less fortuitous ventilation due to tighter building envelopes with high performance ...
An attic fan installed underneath a roof. A powered attic ventilator, or attic fan, is a ventilation fan that regulates the heat level of a building's attic by exhausting hot air. A thermostat is used to automatically turn the fan off and on, while sometimes a manual switch is used. An attic fan can be gable mounted or roof mounted. Additional ...
