Indoor Air Quality in Alaska: what's different
Indoor Air Quality across Alaska depends on the climate (IECC climate zones 7–8). Very dry winter air and tightly sealed homes make humidity control and fresh-air ventilation (HRV or ERV) especially useful.
Alaska is almost entirely a heating market. Long, dark winters with extreme cold in the Interior and milder but wet conditions in Southcentral and Southeast Alaska make heating reliability a safety issue.
Alaska requires contractors to register with the state, and mechanical work requires a mechanical administrator license through the Department of Labor and Workforce Development. Common systems in Alaska: Boilers and radiant heat, Oil and gas furnaces, HRV ventilation, Cold-climate heat pumps.
