A recent survey of 200 homeowners who had bought a ventilation system from EnviroVent revealed how over half of these householders had experienced improvements to their health or home within two weeks of its installation.

Good ventilation is essential in enclosed areas where people live and work, and the heat recovery element of the system can help to improve energy-efficiency.

Pollution can damage children's health even contributing to asthma but did you know indoor air pollutants are just as harmful? Everyone knows about outdoor air pollution and the harmful effects of particulate matter from such things as car exhausts, but the dangers from indoor air pollution can be equally harmful, especially for households with children.

It can be frustrating if the property you own or rent has problems with condensation and mould. Especially so, if you have just spent a small fortune redecorating and the building has extract fans in both the kitchen and bathroom which have worked perfectly fine for years but now do little more than cost you electric.

Poor indoor air quality is a growing problem in UK homes, where a recent survey revealed that 20% of householders reported that they experienced condensation and mould growth in the home.

Waking up to streaming windows is depressing, especially when it’s wet outside. It makes curtains and blinds feel all cold and damp, in some instances they may actually be wet from the condensation, it all adds to the misery of a cold dismal morning.

Leading UK designer & manufacturer of ventilation systems EnviroVent has created a dedicated MVHR showroom at its training centre in Harrogate to showcase MVHR installation.

There are many issues to consider when you are thinking about building your own home but ventilation shouldn’t be an afterthought when planning a self-build.

Whether planning a self-build project, undertaking a renovation, or working as a contractor or other professional in the construction industry, you must ensure that any work you plan to undertake or commission complies with the relevant building regulations.
