Experimental Investigation Of The Indoor Air Quality Of A UK Home
Leonid Suevalov, Xiaofeng Zheng
University of Nottingham, United Kingdom
IAQ is an essential factor influencing health and comfort since occupants spend most of their time inside residential buildings. Indoor pollutants such as particulate matters, VOCs, Radon, high CO2 level, impact on the respiratory system heath and general well-being of occupants. Research on gaining a scientific understanding of its impact has gained momentum recently especially during Covid. However, the necessity for further study in said field remains in the UK context.
This research seeks to contribute to the database by monitoring temperature, CO2, particulate matter, relative humidity, Radon and VOCs of several houses in Nottinghamshire over a heating season in 2024. It aims to gain an improved understanding of the IAQ of typical houses in the UK and their impacting factors such as building airtightness, ventilation strategy and operational behaviour. It is anticipated that the conclusions will be useful in envisioning changes to building fabric, ventilation strategy and use of indoor spaces for increased occupant well-being and comfort.
