Ventilation
</table>
== Ventilation Calculation ==
Fresh air ventilation is required to replenish oxygen removed by people and sources of combustion, and to dilute odours and pollutants. Local exhaust ventilation is required in heads and the galley to remove airborne odours before they spread through the boat. From a ventilation viewpoint, the most effective method is an integrated HVAC system with air distribution and local controls in each cabin. Such a system can include an air-to-air heat exchanger to precondition the temperature of the air and recover energy, and a humidifier/dehumidifier to control levels of indoor moisture. Humidity control is especially important in hot humid climates where unconditioned ventilation can deliver 1 pound (lb) of water per cubic foot (ft^3) of intake air.
