Air intake for a condo apartment

Home Improvement Asked by btk on May 2, 2021

I am renovating a top-floor apartment (gutted it entirely & rebuilding everything). With new windows and doors, spray foam insulation etc, the space is becoming quite air-tight.

I will be putting exhaust vents in both bathrooms and the kitchen, as well as a multi-split AC system. Heat is electric baseboards & some heated floors (running ducts would be impractical at best in my situation).

How should I set up the air intake? I’m looking into a ERV (or HRV) system install. I have full access to the roof (can add vents etc).

One Answer

This is a nice ductless HRV. Depending on number of bedrooms maybe just put 1 per bedroom. The other units typically require a lot of ducting and are large boxes.

You should consider backer rod and energy seal around window/doors (same technique as chinking).
