Balanced ventilation systems with heat recovery and earth to air heat exchangers are interestingtechniques, which can reduce heating and cooling demand of buildings, and improve internal thermal comfort. A numerical study is carried out to evaluate the impact of these two systems on the energy consumption and thermal comfort of a single family house. The impact on the CO2 emission is also given.
