The health risk of poor indoor air quality: Why home ventilation should be high on the installer checklist

The negative health impact of poor indoor air quality has risen sharply in terms of media coverage in recent years. The very real risk to human life as a consequence of poor thermal comfort and inadequate ventilation has also impacted on political decision making.

In this panel session we discuss the link between fabric energy efficiency improvements, such as insulation, and the regulated requirements on installers to ensure homes are well ventilated to meet the increasingly demanding requirements of legislation. From simple interventions to deep retrofit scenarios in our housing stock, the panel will provide clear guidance on what is expected from all domestic installers under PAS2035 and Approved Document F of the Building Regulations.

Speakers

2:15pm - 3:15pm Heat pumps and electric heating: A rapidly growing market

What are the different technologies available and when should you use them?

Plus, everything you need to know to be able to fit them, including common issues and how to overcome them.

Speakers

Wednesday 28th June

10:30 am - 11.30am Building for net zero: What’s next for new build after the 2025 fossil fuel ‘ban’?

A discussion on upcoming regulations that will see new homes transitioning away from fossil fuel boilers. Plus, a review of what low carbon technologies we may be moving to.

Speakers

1:00pm - 2:00pm Do heat pumps make the perfect partner for underfloor heating?

This session will explore the benefits of underfloor heating, its simple installation and how support from BEAMA Underfloor Heating member companies is the key to an easy installation.

It will also look at efficiency gains and how this translates to lower running costs especially when used with heat pumps.
