These results show that there were problems before renovation and the main problems have been solved by the ventilation renovation. The indoor air quality has improved. The total energy consumption has increased, anyhow, because the air flow rates have essentially increased, and probably the system is not in balance and the building envelope is leaky (windows). These results shows how important it is to design the renovation procedure taking into account all the factors which may affect the results.
