/
Outdoor air typically requires conditioning before it is brought into a space. By “condition,” we primarily mean dehumidification, a common requirement here in the Southeast. Ideally the conditioned air should be drier than….

/
Now that you know how to determine the amount of outside air needed for a given space, it’s time to think about how to bring the air into a space that is conditioned by a WSHP. There are two main ways to bring outside air into the space. Outside air can be introduced….
