I had two filters, each just wedged into its opening (they have fairly wimpy
cardboard frames that are easy to push around), but I also had a roof vent. I
did get enough air in through the vents (and the door, which was less than
perfectly sealed) that I never thought about ventilation. Having said that, I
also didn't hang out in the yurt much during the day. I imagine that the
combination of a solar-powered swamp cooler and a couple of furnace vents would
provide plenty of throughput.
Cheers,
Steve
