Each owner of a city apartment tries to make the most efficient use of his square meters. Often, you have to resort to redevelopment. Modern building materials allow it to be carried out using "light" methods, erecting drywall partitions. World architectural trends are urging to minimize the area of bedrooms and at the expense of it to increase living rooms, dining rooms - that is, common areas. One way or another, it is not always possible to allocate a corner with a window for a bedroom. Is it possible to equip a comfortable bedroom out of this “pencil case”? Or will the owners suffer a lifetime of heat and stuffiness? They will be saved by ventilation in a windowless room.
Windowless bedroom ventilation
Room ventilation no windows needed.
Even if the room is designed for only one resident, he will give off 60 watts of heat per hour! This is a lot when it comes to the enclosed space of a small area. And in order to get enough sleep and get up fresh and peppy, the room must be provided with an influx of oxygen.
So, if the apartment is equipped with a well-functioning natural ventilation system in the room, it is necessary to deprive the bedroom with no windows of the status of an “airtight box”. It is pretty simple:
- In the lower part of the wall facing the adjacent room, we make a hole and insert the grate for beauty. At the top, the same for carbon dioxide removal;
- We do not bring the walls to the ceiling, leaving a gap with a width of 10 centimeters at least. She will be completely invisible. And for the air flow in the lower part of the wall or door, again, we provide holes.
The problem of how to make ventilation in the room is even easier if at least one wall of the bedroom faces the street: we mount a small window.
If there is no air flow in the apartment
Most city residents do ventilation in the room with their own hands. Installation of plastic windows, insulation and glazing of balconies make apartments airtight.
Natural ventilation does not work in them. Therefore, how to make ventilation in a room without windows of such an apartment is a separate and difficult question.
Specialists will say: establish a mechanical inflow. And they will be right. This is expensive ventilation in the room, often violating the design of the room. However, in this case, there are no other options. It is necessary to conduct a supply ventilation duct through the entire apartment.
You can also install ventilation in the room with your own hands in this case. But it is preferable to contact specialists at least for calculations. Do not forget that in the bedroom you need not only fresh air, but also silence. Fans providing it should be purchased from specialized firms.
