I’m on my airmaxxing ventilation arc, doing a twice a day (when it’s closest to room temp outside so early morning and late night) 5-10 minute opening of all the windows. Maybe it’s dumb to worry about air quality when i smoke weed like it’s oxygen but yknow what i like it, it’s nice, and maybe i’ll regret the energy bills but it doesn’t feel like that period of being open really affects indoor air temperature that much (i assume the furniture and building and shit has a lot of thermal mass that helps it stay stable)
also guess what, the people who owned this house before put in bourgie glass doors that have hidden screens in them! They roll down from the top, so they’re not visible at all with the glass window closed. I had absolutely no idea. I moved to unlatch what I thought was the window, thinking it would slide forward or down and just be open, when this fucking screen rolls down like magic. wowie zowie. And they’re the perfect height to leave open and my cats can’t do shit to mess with them!
feelin e z breezy over here i tell you
This is good to do. Many people live with terrible indoor air quality. Think about all the petroleum derived products offgassing in your home, and then think of all the other stuff. Even just bio waste stinking the place up. Ventilation is good.
You are right about thermal mass too. A quick air change once or twice a day is not going to increase your energy costs much because your furniture etc does not change temp much in that time. Your fridge works the same way: the more filled, the less impactful it is to open the door.
