For the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), effective and reliable ventilation of buildings is imperative for human comfort and for appropriate air change. Demand for wall vents is rising in mass housing construction. However, practical experience has shown that neither domestically made nor imported vents are suitable for the Republic’s cold climate. At the same time, improving the airtightness of building envelopes remains indeed a relevant undertaking in the context of providing a comfortable indoor microclimate.
