Mech. Engineer retired, built two self-designed homes, last one in 2017, very tight home blowing 1.0 on blower door. Home is slab on grade with hydronic floor heat, mini-splits(mostly just for AC), 80,000 BTU/hr FP(recreational wood fires mostly except when really cold outside). Mostly concerned about IAQ, CO2 control, and ERV details need refining in my home.
