Allergies are extremely commonplace, with over 44% of adults in the UK suffering from them at some point in their lives. But we still don't know exactly why we develop them. Alarmingly, the number of allergy sufferers is growing with every year. Children are particularly susceptible to allergies. However, these can often disappear as they get older. By the same token, people can sometimes develop allergies in later life that they never had before. The actual triggers are hard to decipher, although pre-existing hereditary conditions and environmental factors seem to make a vital contribution.

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.

Phil Harrison, Head of Domestic Ventilation at EnviroVent, looks at how landlords are recognising indoor air quality as an increasingly important issue.

Don’t let condensation and mould get you down this winter, let Mr Venty come to the rescue and breathe life back into your home.

Although there are many ways to reduce condensation problems in the home, truth is, relying on a quick fix won’t get rid of your condensation problems permanently or prevent them from returning in the future, it will only reduce them in the short term.

EnviroVent has been awarded a significant contract by Bolsover District Council to improve air quality for 138 council owned properties in Bolsover, Derbyshire.

A healthy life is a happy life. You may not realise it, but the air you breathe inside your home could be harming you and your family in a number of different ways. Nothing could be more important than the air you breathe, so make it your resolution to improve the air quality in your home. Here are some tips to help you out in your planning.

All homes need adequate ventilation and incorporating mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR) into your house-building project could provide the perfect solution.

EnviroVent has responded to a strong market demand for a ‘smart’ way to control ventilation by making its app available for energisava 250 and 380 MVHR systems.
