Mātauranga | Education

This is a Māori word for education. The idea of this page is to impart some knowledge, wisdom and understanding to the reader, so we all grow together. As I learn, I will share useful information on this page, to help you learn too. The knowledge gained will help us as individual people spread the healthy homes message and ultimately help the health of Aotearoa and the whole planet.

Negative, Positive, Neither?

A live study of specific ventilation systems.


My passion is creating happy, warm, dry, well ventilated, resilient, healthy homes for all people to live in. I’m working on a multi-year renovation of 3 St Albans townhouses. This has slowed down due to interest rate increases and the time taken to obtain the Code of Compliance Certificate for work already completed. (I have CCC now!) I have convinced myself well and truly now that ventilation cannot be competently controlled by just opening windows. Without very good ventilation, no home can be called a healthyhome.

The next stage is to upgrade the ventilation from being intermittent negative pressure (bathroom fans & range hood) to continuous mechanical ventilation with heat recovery.In the meantime, I thought I could conduct an experiment with a continuous negative pressure system.
