automobile products and cleaning products slowly release chemicals into the air.
In an unventilated space, these chemicals build up and produce toxic environment.
Ventilating the basement exhausts polluted or musty air and draws in fresh air from
outdoors.
These are two basic methods for basement ventilation: natural and mechanical,
but the second one has definitively huge advantages depending on the technology
being used.
Why ventilate?
Due to its position below ground, moisture from the earth seeps in through the
floor and walls. When this cold moisture collides with the warmer basement air,
condensation develops.
Excessive condensation creates a musty, sour smell and, if le to collect into pools
of liquid water, stagnates or produces a breeding ground for mold and mildew
spores. Some molds are toxic and hazardous to the health of the home’s occupants.
The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency of USA) reports that certain types of
mold, particularly black mold, can aggravate or cause allergic reactions, asthma
attacks and symptoms of influenza. The EPA recommends that homeowners reduce
or remove any water leaks or moisture problems and ventilate the basement. A
constant influx of clean, fresh air inhibits mold and mildew growth.
