Recently, more and more attention has been paid to properly insulating our homes. This makes the role of good ventilation more important. This is because better insulation prevents polluted indoor air from escaping through cracks and crevices and reduces the amount of fresh air entering the house. A ventilation system is essential for maintaining a healthy indoor climate, but it can lead to some heat loss, as mainly fresh outside air enters the house. If you opt for a MVHR units, however, you ensure that your ventilation system works effectively together with your heating system. In this blog, we explain exactly how this works.

During the winter months, it is all about creating a pleasant and warm atmosphere in our homes. While we focus on heating our homes, we sometimes forget the importance of ventilation. Having good ventilation is crucial, even during the coldest months, as it ensures healthy air quality and reduces the spread of germs and allergens. In this blog, we provide some tips and suggestions for taking care of your ventilation system in winter.
A nice living space, improved sleep and healthy growing children. One way to achieve all this is through good ventilation. In this blog, we provide you with the necessary tips and tricks.
It is important to know where noise in your ventilation system is coming from, before you can reduce it. A ventilation system causes air to be moved and in doing so, vibrations are released. To do this, a mechanical ventilation system is equipped with a motor that also creates vibrations. Many of these vibrations produce noise and thus annoyance. The noise level can vary from one ventilation system to another.
The lack of fresh air in a room is very unhealthy. Among other things, it leads to physical complaints that are very quickly noticeable. This blog lists the complaints caused by poor ventilation and gives tips on how to prevent them.
Research shows that incorrect CO2 and air humidity levels are often the cause of health complaints at home, in schools, offices and other spaces. Commonly mentioned are fatigue, headaches, and dry or irritated eyes. Lack of (good) ventilation is the biggest and often the only culprit.
Energy prices are skyrocketing, and decesion have to be made between eating or heating. It is time to make our homes more sustainable and thus save energy. In summer, our homes use less energy than in winter. In summer you are outside more often and the heating does not have to be switched on. In winter, we often keep the windows closed to keep the heat in, but unfortunately that is when the problems arise. There is no fresh air coming into our well insulated houses. The lack of fresh air leads to high CO2 levels, which in turn leads to various health complaints.
Improperly ventilating a home can create an unhealthy living environment and therefore result in health problems. It is interesting to know which ventilation system your home or office has, so that you can use it correctly. It could be that the incorrect use of a ventilation system will result in unnecessary costs or a deterioration of the living environment. Below we explain which types of ventilation systems can be present in your home or office. Do you want to buy a ventilation system? Then first read more about the types of ventilation systems available at Ventilationland.
We are frequently asked how one should maintain a mechanical fan or heat recovery system. This is a very good question, because for maximum benefit from your ventilation system, proper maintenance is a must. This does not require intensive maintenance but regular cleaning.
As houses are becoming increasingly airtight, there is less natural ventilation. By installing air grids, continuous and optimal ventilation is restored. When using mechanical ventilation, air grilles and valves are also needed for the supply and removal of air. Do you want to install new air vents, replace old ones or clean your air vent covers? In this article we explain the best way to go about it.
Mechanical ventilation does make noise, but what causes that noise? A frequently asked question is: "How much sound is produced by mechanical ventilation?". To describe sound we use decibels, but what is this compared to? And how much noise should a ventilation system make? You can read it here.
Many people underestimate the power of good ventilation in the home, while continuously ventilating your home, office and business premises will benefit your health. Do you feel like you are starting to get tired, have poor concentration, get headaches or feel stuffy inside? Then it's time to get some fresh air. However, you do not need to go outside for this, this can be done simply by natural or mechanical ventilation in your home, school or office.
Wanneer je voor een langere tijd in een ruimte bent, is het belangrijk om te weten of de luchtkwaliteit goed is. Wanneer dit niet het geval is loop je risico om last te krijgen van diverse gezondheidsklachten. Zeker wanneer je met meerdere mensen in huis of op kantoor bent, kunnen de CO2 waarden snel oplopen. Nu is niet alleen de blootstelling aan een hoog CO2 niveau erg schadelijk, ook corona kan makkelijker overgedragen worden in een ruimte met een hoge ppm waarde. Een koolstofdioxide meter is dus onmisbaar geworden. Dit apparaat geeft aan wanneer het CO2 niveau te hoog is in een ruimte, en daarmee wanneer het tijd is om te ventileren.
After purchasing the EnviSense CO2 meter, you may have some questions. To help you, here are the most frequently asked questions and their answers. Is your question not here? Please don't hesitate to contact us.
Adiabatic cooling, or evaporative cooling, is an effective way of cooling. The air inside is cooled by evaporating water. It is a more energy-efficient and sustainable alternative to regular air conditioning. Depending on the airflow, this way of cooling is up to 80% more efficient and has been used for centuries. In this blog, we explain adiabatic cooling and why it is also an effective way of cooling at home.
