42 HEATING, VENTILATION & SERVICES Building Regulations need a breath of fresh air
There is a worrying problem with current building regulations. Minimum ventilation requirements state that the inclusion of window ‘trickle vents’ and extract-only fans are all you need to pass the regulations. The problem is, in an average three-bed
property the total ‘free area’ of these vents is equivalent to around one square foot, like having a window wide open all year round. Close the vents to stop cold draughts, odours, outdoor pollution or street noise and you stop your ventilation! But with MVHR, filtration can be incorporated to clean the supply air to stop outdoor pollutants from entering the home. Visit the Solarcrestwebsite for more information.
