What is the purpose of this in Irish houses?

  1. Google “Mechanical Heat Recovery Ventilation”.

    I would love to have it in my own house. My parents have it in their newer build and it does wonders at saving heating cost by lowering humidity and improving indoor air quality, especially in the winter.

  2. He knows when you’re sleeping
    He knows when you’re awake
    He know when you’ve been bad or good
    So be good for goodness sake

    How does he know ? I’ve said too much already

  3. That there is a genuine Fae peephole. So they can see what we’re doing and realise they don’t have to fuck with us anymore. We’re fucked already

  4. It’s to release knock out gases into the room. The kind you’d see in Bond but the government use them to make sure your not awake when they carry out their nightly checks. I know I used to work for them. I got fired though for continuous putting peoples hands in water jugs and I painted a lads feet black one night. So sorry Henry Radford, 223 rattan Street Upper that was me.

  5. It’s a methane monitor, under the Paris climate agreement each household has a methane allotment. New builds have these to monitor your farts to make sure they don’t exceed the limit.

  6. yeah, its just something we started doing lately. We spend about 80,000 euro upgrading our houses with triple glazing, pumping the wall cavities with insulation, putting insulation in the attic and various other measures to upgrade the heat efficiency of our homes, then we just knock great big lumps out of the walls or ceilings and pop an ould vent in there right into the outside. (though this looks like it could be an extractor)

    But seriously, since all these super new “ventilation” rules have come in, I really cant believe how many people I know who suffer from absolutely unbelievable damp and mould problems. I cant ever remember having these issues in my grand parents house or my child hood home or any one I ever knew either. (grew up in the 80’s mostly). My friends recently installed triple glazed windows for about 16,000 euro and the windows have vents in them (effectively slats to the outside), what’s the point? hang a sack cloth up….cheaper…its mental.lol
