Technology Future of repair diagnostics and reporting
Craig Oosthuizen, Head of Client Operations, M3: As the social housing sector continues to manage the impact of Covid and the subsequent repairs backlog, we have seen an increasing demand for innovative tools that harness the latest software developments in reporting and diagnostics. With the focus on mitigating risk and greater efficiency, landlords are recognising the benefits of investing in apps that allow residents and maintenance teams to report, diagnose and schedule repairs at the touch of a button. Apps such as M3Central mean tenants can upload photos and use step-by-step guides to ensure repairs are diagnosed quickly, without the need for an expensive callout.

A recent study by Vent-Axia looked at the effect of installing Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) in a home with ongoing condensation and mould problems. PIV was installed in a trial house for four months and two main air quality factors were measured during this time. The data collected showed a significant improvement in indoor air quality in the home. The Lo-Carbon PoziDry Pro and Lo-Carbon PoziDry Compact Pro PIV units from Vent-Axia provide a highly effective solution to help landlords control condensation and mould, as well as offering high levels of air filtration. The PIV units are highly energy efficient, unobtrusive, near silent and help provide a healthy environment.
