Supporting Competency
Regulatory pressures with tightened building regulations, The Homes Act & Awaab’s Law mean social landlords require a ventilation strategy and teams skilled and ready to go. Meeting these requirements means developing the skills needed to deliver high quality installations. At EnviroVent, we are helping contractors from across the UK to meet this demand through our NICEIC-approved Domestic Ventilation Training & Assessment Course, delivered at our factory in Harrogate.
This 2-day course provides practical and theoretical training in system installation, commissioning and compliance. It’s the recognised route to joining a Competent Person Scheme.
We also offer a free-of-charge CPD-accredited Condensation and Mould workshop. This 60-minute workshops provides our customers with an in-depth explanation of how condensation and mould occur and looks at long term solutions.
We can also support with a free-of-charge CPD-accredited Domestic Ventilation Best Practice workshop. This 60-minute course provides the employee from our customers with an overview of specifying and installing domestic ventilation systems. The candidates will be offered the chance to commission the EnviroVent Infinity fan to building regulations.
Ventilation Solutions
Training is just one part of the picture – the products themselves must be effective and suitable for social housing. At EnviroVent, our solutions are designed with landlords and residents in mind.
EnviroVent Infinity 8
With our Infinity fan suitable for kitchens, bathrooms and WCs we have developed a low maintenance, energy efficient product backed by an industry leading 8-year warranty. With built-in data logging and variable speed control, it provides intelligent ventilation with minimal disruption to residents.
Positive Input Ventilation (PIV)
With the need for proactive solutions to condensation & mould, PIV is ideal – especially in properties where major refurbishment isn’t viable. Suitable for houses or apartments PIV systems introduce filtered, fresh air throughout the home, diluting pollutants and displacing moisture-laden air. This reduces condensation and prevents mould from gaining a foothold.
Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR)
For new build and on occasions retrofit projects MVHR is a great ventilation solution to improve indoor air quality, recover potential lost heat and support with a whole house ventilation system. This system choice can recover up to 95% of the heat in the exhaust air and is a great method to help make a property more energy efficient. It can be an essential part of a new build property design, support with SAP points.
Support with Condensation & Mould Complaints
At EnviroVent we have a nationwide team of qualified Ventilation Engineers. We have a wealth of experience in helping social landlords across the UK with free of charge property surveys for condensation & mould. This survey will provide an independent report on the environmental data in the property and advise if a ventilation solution will assist in solving the condensation and mould complaint
Design support for Social Landlords
We know that one size doesn’t fit all. That’s why at EnviroVent we offer a completely free ventilation design service for social housing providers – including detailed technical drawings to support compliance with SAP assessments and the latest Building Regulations.
Remote Environmental Data-logging
We have also built a partnership with Vericon Systems, a manufacturer of remote technologies, to enable social landlords to take advantage of real time visibility over environmental conditions within their properties.
The partnership will allow our team to install Vericon’s remote monitoring and management platform, alongside our ventilation solutions following free property surveys to help predict and manage condensation and mould risks.
