5 Sectional view of a ventilated under-fl oor cavity Home built with a ventilated IGLU’® foundation. Internal view of the interspace formed with Iglu'® The final solution: Iglù® A ventilated under-fl oor cavity created with Iglù® represents an effective, quick and economic solution that makes it possible to send humidity and dangerous Radon gas to the atmosphere, which is benefi cial to our health. The air cavity formed by the Iglù® modules must be connected to the outside with simple pipes. This creates a natural air fl ow that crosses the cavity and eliminates moisture and Radon gas (if present). The results of some ventilation tests (carried out on our behalf by the University of Brno - Czech Republic - available on request) indicate that the factor that has the greatest impact on the passage of air below the under-fl oor cavity is the presence of wind and its direction. The form of the Iglù® was designed to create minimum air resistance in the soffit of the modules. The cavity is very large to the benefi t of the insulation, ventilation and transit of technical and technological users. WATERPROOF SHEATH LEAN CONCRETE SLAB FLOOR WITH FOUNDATION WATER REPELLENT THERMAL INSULATION REINFORCED CONCRETE SLAB IGLU’® FORMWORK air outlet PVC UTILITIES To obtain a natural "chimney effect" position the inlet holes on the northern side at a height just off the ground and the outlet holes on the southern side at a higher point (preferably up to the roof), being careful to connect the various rooms of the foundation grid together so that the entire under-fl oor cavity is connected. The ducts positioned inside the wall with southern exposure will heat up, causing an upward motion intaking air from the under-fl oor cavity. www.baygar.com
