Summer is undoubtedly the favourite season for many of us, but for those with hay fever, it can soon become a nightmare if the right precautions haven’t taken place. From short to long lasting approaches, there is a hay fever prevention option for everyone – from Vaseline to Ventilation, find what works for you.

As summer draws to a close the hopes of a September heat wave keep most of us from flicking the central heating switch to on. Our thoughts turn to those long dark nights, winter woolies and keeping nice and cosy on those evenings when temperatures drop below freezing.

Bryony Perry, Specialist Ventilation Expert at the UK's leading ventilation manufacturer, EnviroVent, gives her advice on preventing mould and condensation issues in landlords’ properties.

Without a continuous flow of fresh air into and out of your home the relative humidity rises, and the internal atmosphere quickly becomes full of moisture. Eventually leading to condensation, especially with fluctuations in temperature which occur during winter.

If you believe your home is suffering from damp or condensation problems (but you’re unsure of whether it’s condensation, rising damp or penetrating damp) it’s incredibly important that the problem in your home is diagnosed correctly in order to ensure a precise treatment.

EnviroVent, one of the UK’s leading ventilation manufacturers, has revolutionised its Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) range and added a whole collection of new features and functionality to make it even more appealing for homeowners, self-builders, social housing providers and private landlords.

By their nature, bathrooms create much steam and water vapour. Without proper ventilation, this can turn to condensation and damp, not just in the bathroom, but also in nearby rooms.

Radon penetration occurs in many thousands of homes in the UK, predominantly in the East Midlands and the South West but there are pockets just about everywhere across the UK.

If you are a social landlord and want to ensure you are maximising profits and protecting your investment, we can help. As we strive to make our properties more energy efficient by keeping in the heat, we are losing fresh air and ventilation in our homes. Poor ventilation coupled with condensation and moisture can mean mould and damp problems, creating issues that could affect the health of your tenants and the value of your property. In this post, we look at why it is so important for social landlords to continually review the ventilation and energy systems in their properties, in order to maximise their profits, and minimise their problems.
