Vortice has always been committed to educating its customers about the importance of ventilation so is thrilled to get behind DEFRA’s new clean air strategy consultation.
This new draft outlines very simply that ‘Air pollution is the top environmental risk to human health in the UK, and the fourth greatest threat to public health after cancer’.
The draft clearly shows the connection between suitable, correct ventilation and good indoor air quality which maintains the health and wellbeing of the occupants.
The DEFRA consultation also discusses how occupant behaviour can affect the ventilation requirements of a home.
Marketing manager, Jennifer Quinn, said: “Vortice welcomes this new government strategy as this will underscore what we have been talking about for years.
“It is important for us as a ventilation manufacturer always to offer a compliant solution suitable for the end application and to provide education to the installer and end user.
“We find lack of education is the key issue here so it is great to see this consultation highlighting the risks of bad ventilation and what damage this can have on the occupant’s health.”
