   An axial belt-drive exhaust fan serving an underground car park. This exhaust fan's operation is interlocked with the concentration of contaminants emitted by internal combustion engines. Mechanical ventilation of buildings and structures can be achieved by the use of the following techniques: Whole-house ventilation; Mixing ventilation

7. Ground-coupled heat exchanger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground-coupled_heat_exchanger

   Potential benefits associated with shared ground heat exchange. A shared ground array comprises connected ground heat exchangers for use by more than one home. [1] They can deliver low-carbon heating where individual ground-coupled heat exchangers are not viable, such as in terraced housing with little outside space.
