Ciao,
Ho notato che l’aria fredda dall’esterno proviene da questo sfiato? Ha 2 linguette che posso spingere o estrarre, attualmente sono tirate fuori. Nessuna impostazione fa alcuna differenza. La cosa strana è che ho un altro sfiato proprio sotto di esso (la forma ovale con 2 quadrati a bordo arrotondato). È normale? O dovrei segnalarlo alla manutenzione?
Grazie a tutti

Don’t know these exact ones but is quite common to have summer and winter air inlets. Summer one has opening straight from outside, winter one circulates air between outer and inner windows so it heats up a bit before coming to room. Both have filters inside which should be replace once a year
Open the vent by pushing the end of the plastic rounded bar in the window frame. Air should come in from there so it’ll come from between the windows.
That’s the air intake for your apartment, don’t close it or else you start running out of oxygen. Some of these have summer and winter settings while others are either open or closed. The slot in the windowframe is for another air intake system (Pihla KLIK I think), not sure why you have two different intakes but I guess someone added them for a reason.
It’s normal to feel cold draft in apartments with these systems, it’s the flaw of this style of intake.
There’s probably a folder with the apartment papers and user manuals somewhere in the hallway cabinet or somewhere else. At least if the apartment is not very old. Try to look for it and check if you find something about the windows there. Reading those instructions should be the first thing to do when moving in. The papers are most likely in Finnish, but translator helps… or you can post a picture here if in need of additional help.
The idea is twofold. Your apartment has mechanical ventilation that creates an under pressure in the flat. Air is replaced through these vents. In the summer, they are in the wide open position. In the winter, you retract them. You have the heater element below the window. Warm air rises and the flow mixes with the cold air from the vent, therefore the replaced air doesn’t feel very cold at all.
Almost. Move arrows 10 cm towards center, above the rectangular box / grille
Yes. After you come back warmed from the sauna in winter, washing down salmiakki of kotikalja, you should feel the fresh frosty subarctic air on your own wet skin and feel the joy of suomen elämä.
Its not cold air yet..wait few months
