What Does a Ventilation System Do?

A commercial ventilation system’s primary function is continuously exchanging indoor air with fresh outdoor air, removing pollutants, controlling temperature, and managing humidity levels. This process is vital for ensuring the health and comfort of occupants, preserving the integrity of buildings, and meeting regulatory standards for indoor air quality.

Natural Ventilation

Natural ventilation leverages the natural forces of wind and thermal buoyancy to facilitate air movement in and out of a building without mechanical systems. Windows, vents, louvers, and other openings are strategically placed to allow fresh air to enter and stale air to exit, promoting a comfortable indoor environment.

This method is energy-efficient, as it does not rely on electrically powered devices, but its effectiveness depends on the building’s design, orientation, and local climate.

Mechanical Ventilation Systems

Mechanical ventilation uses fans and duct systems to control indoor air quality and airflow. Unlike natural ventilation, which relies on passive air movement, mechanical systems actively push or pull air into and out of a building.

This category includes exhaust, supply, and balanced systems, providing precise control over ventilation rates, air distribution, and filtration. Mechanical ventilation is essential in buildings where natural ventilation cannot meet the air quality or comfort requirements, such as in densely populated urban environments or facilities with specific cleanliness standards.

Types of Mechanical Ventilation

These ventilation systems can include:

Exhaust and supply systems: Purely mechanical, focusing on either removing air from or supplying air to the space.
Balanced systems: These are also mechanical, ensuring an equal amount of incoming and outgoing air to maintain pressure balance.
ERV (energy recovery ventilators) and HRV (heat recovery ventilators) systems: Advanced forms of mechanical ventilation that recover energy from the exhaust air stream.

Mixed-Mode or Hybrid Ventilation

Mixed-mode or hybrid ventilation systems combine natural and mechanical ventilation elements to optimize indoor air quality, comfort, and energy efficiency. These systems intelligently switch between or simultaneously use natural and mechanical processes based on indoor and outdoor environmental conditions, occupant needs, and energy consumption goals. Sensors and control systems play a crucial role in mixed-mode setups, adjusting ventilation modes to respond to changes in temperature, humidity, and CO2 levels.
