Increasing demands for energy conservation have led to more efficient insulation, with
the virtual elimination of draughts and 'natural' ventilation in modern new build or
renovated dwellings and commercial buildings.
Whilst providing major economic and environmental benefits, these improvements have
highlighted the importance of ventilation in providing a healthy living environment.
Inadequate ventilation leads to problems of condensation and, in extreme cases, to
damp and mould growth as the result of normal living activities such as cooking, washing
and showering.
In order to provide a healthier and more comfortable living environment, free from the
problems of condensation and air-borne pollutants, it is necessary to balance three
factors: heating, insulation and ventilation. The ideal is therefore to provide adequate
ventilation in an energy efficient manner.
As leaders in the field, Ubbink have developed two seminars which enhance the
understanding and skills development for the professionals concerned with this important
topic throughout all sectors of the construction industry.
Both seminars are intended for presentation in a CPD environment and, to that end,
have been independently certified for CPD purposes by the Construction CPD Certification
Service of which Ubbink are committed members.
