All new dwellings in England and Wales are required to undergo a model-based overheating risk assessment prior to construction. An important model input is the building infiltration rate, which is usually estimated using a conversion factor on the dwelling airtightness. There is a paucity of evidence regarding the reliability of these methods in summertime. This aim of this paper is to provide new evidence on the relationship between airtightness and infiltration during summertime.

Ventilation and source control (e.g. using low volatile organic compound (VOC) emitting materials) are two recommended approaches to control indoor air pollution and VOC’s in particular. Decisions on how to minimize exposure can be supported by indoor air chemistry modeling, since the relationships between VOC’s, their precursors, and building ventilation is so complex. For example, modeling could be used to examine the impact of altering building ventilation.
