Building my 12 x 18 HT and looking for HVAC solutions....
The house has hydronic radiant heat and/or baseboard heating, no AC, no furnace or other forced air system to tap into for the basement HT. The basement HT has no ventilation, code requires a mechanical system (where there are no windows) with outdoor make-up air.
Wondering what others have done in this situation.
My thinking...
Fantech AEV1000 air exchange ventilator
Electric in line duct heater for the heating needs
the A/C portion is up in the air. 6+ months of the year the air exchange ventilator should be fine (natural A/C). In the summer, the area will see much less frequent use (too many other things to do in the short summer!) so we may forgo the AC for now.
