Fan CFM rating is higher than the requirement increasing the likelihood that it will meet the performance level once installed
Fan CFM rating is higher than the requirement increasing the likelihood that it will meet the performance level once installed
Fan housing was oriented in the correct direction to allow proper exhaust duct installation
Fans from seperate dwellings exhausted together without back-draft dampers and not sealed
Fans supply outdoor air tempered by indoor corridor air to the corridors of a multistory multifamily building, pressurizing the corridors and providing make-up air for the elevator shaft, which is depressurized by an exhaust fan.
FEMA recommends techniques like open lower wall cavities with exterior rigid foam insulation and paperless drywall for flood-resistant, dryable wall interiors.
