13. From Insulate and Weatherize by Bruce Harley: Older homes usually had little or no insulation and were quite leaky. They are the basis for that pearl of wisdom “a house has to breathe”…One approach to dealing with this is a head-in-the-sand stance: Let’s not make this house “too efficient” in the hope that it will “breathe” and stay healthy. Why make a house tight, and then spend money to ventilate it? Doesn’t it make more sense to just leave it a little bit leaky? The short answer is no. A leaky house experiences haphazard ventilation that may or may not be appropriate or adequate. A good ventilation system, on the other hand, allows you to control the introduction of fresh air into a home.
