• -14°C this morning, -4°C now.
• air enters the ventilation at 5°C thanks to the passive ground-coupled heat exchanger (+9°C)
• supplied air is at 21°C thanks to the air-to-air heat exchanger (+16°C)
• extracted air is at 24°C
• discharged air is at 8°C
It consumes around 300W of electricity.
The ventilation maintains the temperature whilst renewing air. The greenhouse heats the house. It's currently at 32°C.
I'd send warm wishes,
but since Climate's changed winters,
that's no longer cool.

"Indeed, some researchers have called chronic kidney disease the first chronic illness directly linked to climate change. While no clinical test exists to determine the precise cause of the ailment known as CKD, a growing body of evidence shows that working in hot weather slowly damages the kidneys. Ignacio has worked in construction in Texas, one of the hottest states, for more than 10 years."

Summer heat still comes.
It should've stopped weeks ago,
had we not fueled it.

Hello World!
It's Finland calling!
Here, up in the North, you know, #Lapland, #ArcticCircle, reindeers, Santa Claus etc.
For the 3rd week, this is how the #weather is like in here. The #heat limit here is 25 °C.
Today yet another record was broken - it has been 19 days that the #temperature has been above 30 °C somewhere in #Finland. And tomorrow it'll be 20 since this map is for tomorrow afternoon.
You think #ClimateChange isn't real?
Well, think again.

Been feeling sad for the past 3 days. Don't know why. There is no changing my mood, and this sucks. Nothing particular going on.
I have too low energy to do anything in this heat. Very uninspiring. Not interested in going out, running, or anything else for that matter.
I think I'm just going to lounge today.
