I'm finding that I struggle a lot with sleeping and doing certain things that necessarily lead me to believe that my bedroom has bad air flow. My bedroom is in the basement of my house, has no windows, and exactly one doorway in the opposite corner from my bed. We do have a vent system but it's old and doesn't have A/C, only heating, which we never use, so it's basically a static non-variable.I always keep a fan on blowing in air from the door at night, but of course that doesn't help. What can I do to fix this problem? I need to be able to breathe better.
That sucks and spunds illegalAnyway get a dehumidfyer
>>2947094Can you just add a window? This seems like a relatively easy fix.
You could put a high pressure gradient fan on the vent to pull air in, assuming there are no solid elements blocking air flow there. Alternatively get a hole core drilled in the exterior wall and put in a ventilation pipe.
>>2947094Use a duct to insert blow air to the far end of the room.
test for radon
>>2947191This is actually really important. And coincidentally, the fix for radon is the same as the fix for stale air: pumping new air in and old air out.
I think you just want a simple duct for air circulation. So a square hole at the top of the wall, which let's hot air escape, and a low hole or pipe at the bottom of the wall which let's cold air in. Humidity could be a factor, in that case you just put a little 12v box fan and a dehumidifier in the duct. Damp air is less comfortable generally. If you can't install ducts by sawing holes for pipes, well then you'd get a commercial style duct, a silver tin foil tube that hangs from the ceiling and dies exactly the same thingFor first, check to see your vent system is set up correctly. They should work passively. They should have blocks/covers and you need to take them on and put them off in the right combination to get the air to flow.
>>2947094>>2947191Also test CO2, shouldn't be >1000ppm for long periodsinb4 OP has been gently asphyxiating
