Air movement in houses is now recognised as a major factor both in condensation risk and in energy efficiency, yet conventional test methods have limitations. Using a multi-channel gas analyser and computer operation, the BRE Scottish Laboratory has extended conventional techniques of testing and of measurement to give a more realistic assessment of the processes at work, as explained here. Field studies have verified the importance of blocking gaps in the ceiling, for 20-30 per cent of the air entering a house will leave via the roof space through these gaps, which are critical for moisture transfer but less important for heat transfer. |
