Ask the Expert: Max Sherman

About
Got some building science questions you've always wondered about? Write down your most puzzling ones, then come to this Q&A with Max Sherman (formerly from Lawrence Berkeley national labs in the U.S.) to hear him drop some knowledge.Here are a few that I might ask:
- The mythical "Divide by 20" rule to convert a blower door result to natural air changes. Where’s that from?
- Are induction cooktops any healthier than natural gas ones? What makes some kitchen range hoods better than others?
- Exhaust-only ventilation systems pull air out of a house and replacement air comes through walls. Doesn't the data show that's a bad idea?
- What about multi-residential buildings? We’re building apartments in Australia tighter than ever without much ventilation. What are the first things we could do to protect IAQ?
Set aside an hour and bring some good questions about airtightness and ventilation!
