The occupant's daily routine can have an impact on the house-as-a-system:

• How you cook your meals
• How often you do laundry and dry clothes
• Are you in and out a lot or stay in once home
• How many people share the space
• Do you like windows open or closed

These activities can create moisture in a home. This moisture can create problems if it is not controlled/managed. To properly control moisture levels, it is recommended that a home have a ventilation system installed.

Factors that affect the comfort of people in an indoor environment are:

• Sound
