The Importance of Ventilation in Buildings

February 8, 2022 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm

We spend 90% of our lives inside buildings and yet the indoor air quality is often poor. As we continue to improve the airtightness of our buildings, we need to ensure that the quality of indoor air is maintained for our health and wellbeing. In the light of the pandemic, an improvement in indoor air quality is more essential than ever before.

This two hour online training session will cover the basic principles of ventilation, its link to building performance, moisture control in buildings and indoor air quality.

Vince House and Peter King of Aereco will discuss:

– Why we need to ventilate buildings
– Overview of each recognised ventilation system and others
– Example of calculating ventilation rates in accordance with Part F
– The damage moisture can do to buildings and how to minimise this
– Testing and commissioning systems
– Best practice and guidance for installation

Vince will also demonstrate the various ventilation systems available today, how to identify them and the capabilities of each system.

This seminar is part of a series of 3 events on Ventilation, with the more in depth session (Level 2) taking place on 22 February 2022 and the third session from the perspective of the client, contractor and supplier taking place on 8 March 2022.

This first session can be attended as a stand alone course, but if you are interested in the second session it is recommended to book both dates as Level 2 will refer heavily on detail from Level 1.
