Air molecules are not dust-sized.


You can use a bladder to quickly equalize air pressure without exchanging air. (Air will slowly penetrate most bladders, but it's not fast enough for rapid pressure changes.)

Some heaters use a similar approach to limit corrosion. http://www.westank.com/bladder-tanks.php


That's what I was thinking too, and the pressure changes shouldn't be so drastic that the bladder would burst.
