The new ATMOS^® Range from EnviroVent has been shortlisted for one of the sector’s most sought-after awards, the ASCP Product of the Year 2019.

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.

In building terms, ventilation simply refers to the process of changing or replacing air with external air in a given space over a period of time.

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.

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.

With heat records being broken across Europe each summer, it looks like hot weather is going to become a new normal. While many of us in colder (and damper) climes may welcome more sun and warmth, we also need to be prepared for hot weather and the risks and changes it brings.

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.

Clean Air Day (21 June 2018) is an important event and has been put forward for debate in Parliament by MP, Helen Hayes. She proposed that the day should be both acknowledged and funded for its work in providing the public with independent, science-driven information and advice on issues of clean air and pollution.
