All homes need to have adequate ventilation - it can help to prevent damp and mould caused by condensation, and can reduce the chances of contracting health issues caused or exacerbated by poor indoor air quality.

Ventilation is important for every home. There are different ways to implement ventilation systems, each with their pros and cons, but whole house ventilation has several distinct advantages.

One of the primary concerns when building new homes today is energy efficiency. This can be achieved by using many different techniques, including making them more airtight.

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.

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.

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

Although chemical treatment and mould paint can be used as a temporary measure for mould and damp they do not offer a permanent solution.

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.
