health & well being
It’s not only your bank account and green conscience that will benefit from installing renewable energy options in your premises: there are significant beneficial side-effects for your health too.
Good ventilation systems, linked to either heat recovery or air conditioning, which can be driven by heat pump technology that provides heating as well as cooling, ensure that the air you breathe is free of a wide range of potentially harmful substances:
* Dust and smoke
* Bacteria and viruses
* Mould, fungus and mildew
* Gases from paints, dyes, varnishes and adhesives
Many of these, often in combination, cause allergic reactions that would never have been present in older, draughtier houses. Modern houses, constructed to conserve energy, have massively reduced natural fresh air-flow too.
Ventilation systems, incorporating filters and humidity controls, reduce these air pollutants and provide a steady supply of fresh,
filtered clean air, without draughts or unsightly vents or noisy extractor fans.
