Location as a Determinative Factor of Building Airtightness
Original language description
The paper deals with location and exposure of the building in terms of building airtightness. Airtightness of the building envelope is one of the basic prerequisites of energy-efficient buildings. Energy efficient buildings situated in areas with lots of wind and in exposed locations could constitute up to 10 % of total heat consumption. The exchange of air through the building envelope is conditional on pressure difference between interior and exterior. The pressure difference is usually caused by a combination of wind effect, stack effect, combustion and ventilation. The location and its parameters (exposure, altitude, wind, temperature and other) can be considered as passive determinative factors of air permeability of the building envelope. The surrounding environment of the building does not have a direct impact on the final airtightness of the building envelope.
