Level of infiltration and ventilation #39

As we discussed last week, @nheeren, some of the archetypes might have too low value of air changes per hour.

For example, the image below shows the value of infiltration for the SFH archetype: (A) without MMV and (B) with MMV. I tried to make the second one as close to the first one as possible. image

But that's only infiltration! The archetype (A) would have ventilation on top of that. And the archetype (B)... well, it has additional ACH when the windows are opened. But when they are not, and the HVAC is activated, then the ACH might be too low.

So the question is, are these values too low? Should we somehow add ventilation to the MMV archetype?
