Can't the ventilation system cool the air a bit? As far as I have read, it is possible. Also, the underfloor heating would run, as it is supposed to cool. It is clear that tempering via underfloor heating is not nearly as effective as an air conditioner. But it is enough if you go from outside into a room that is 4 degrees cooler. Then you have already gained a lot for little money.
We did not buy the cooling function of the system because I had read in online research beforehand that it can only achieve 2-3 degrees (if things go well), and cold air does not rise either -> cold feet problem. There are probably systems where ventilation is combined with air conditioning. We have a normal, central ventilation system. It has no cooling function. The heat pump’s cooling function (if we had bought it) would only cool via underfloor heating.
When we built the house, I considered the air conditioning more of a luxury. Now, as the first summer in the house is running, I am really glad to have it. Because it is very difficult to keep the heat out in such a well-insulated, new house. Just the sunlight through the windows heats the house up. Either you shade so consistently that you could live in a cave, or you let the light in. The amount of heating energy that 1 meter of window front with sunlight produces is not to be underestimated, I massively underestimated this during construction. And once you have the warm air inside the house in summer, it becomes difficult to get it out again without air conditioning. The only idea I have is not to ventilate during the day and then try to get the warm air out at night by ventilating. But in a summer like we had in 2019, it was often still around 30°C at night. That is very uncomfortable to sleep in at those temperatures.
In May, I once managed to have 28°C in the house even though the outside temperature was only 18°C. I had not shaded the windows and the ventilation system was running without the summer cassette, meaning with 98% heat recovery. Over several sunny days, it got warmer and warmer in the house. We only got rid of the warm air again when we manually set the ventilation system to summer mode (some exhaust air during the day, higher ventilation level at night) and already cooled down again in May with the air conditioning units.
