Ventilation for the home to
improve indoor air quality
The average person in the UK spends 90% of their time indoors, with 70% being within the home. Yet, at the risk of inadequate ventilation, homes are being made as airtight as possible in order to keep down heating bills through the retention of warm air.
Residential Applications

Care Homes and Sheltered Buildings
The air changes within care homes and sheltered buildings will depend upon which areas of the building occupants are located at a particular time, with individual rooms naturally requiring lower air changes than communal areas. Effective ventilation is best provided by reducing air leakage, extracting moisture and pollutants at source, and providing occupant controllable ventilation.

Private Housing
Elta Fans can provide a range of ventilation options for the home including specifically designed bathroom and kitchen fans, that can prevent condensation, damp and mould and therefore preserve the condition of your home.

Social Housing
The installation of a correctly specified mechanical ventilation system can ensure the quality of air within the home is constantly maintained regardless of the changing activity within. The correct ventilation system can prevent common, often damaging, issues such as condensation and mould.

High Rise and Apartments
Apartments require a large number of individual units for kitchens and bathrooms as well as larger units able to properly ventilation corridors, hallways, lifts and communal areas.

Barracks
The air changes within barracks will depend upon which areas of the building occupants are located at a particular time, with individual rooms naturally requiring lower air changes than communal areas.
