Vent-Axia Ventilation Systems - Why is indoor air quality important?
With people spending up to 90% of their time indoors, and with growing
evidence of pathogens moving around our buildings, there has never been a
more important time to make sure a building has effective ventilation.
Add to this that around 65% of homes in the UK are estimated to suffer
from poor indoor air quality because of inadequate ventilation, the need to treat ventilation as an essential element of any building becomes
clear.
Vent-Axia Ventilation Systems - Effective ventilation helps to create a healthier indoor environment by
preventing the build-up of airborne pollutants. Our range of Vent-Axia Ventilation Systems
solutions can help protect people inside buildings such as homes,
offices or care homes etc. We're here to help you find the right type of

Why you need to maintain your Vent-Axia Ventilation Systems
It is important to maintain your Vent-Axia Ventilation Systems in order for it to function effectively. Ventilation servicing helps to extend product life, lowers running costs, providing quieter running and cleaner air in the home. Dirty filters lead to poor indoor air quality and can make ventilation systems inefficient. Regular servicing combats this & reduces maintenance & repair costs. Vent-Axia Ventilation Systems are designed to keep maintenance levels to a minimum. For larger Vent-Axia Ventilation Systems we recommend a full service every 2 years with filter changes required every 3-6 months in between.
For smaller Vent-Axia Ventilation Systems we recommend periodically checking the fan is free of any dust/dirt/grease build up using a damp cloth with warm water and a mild detergent. Make sure that the fan is switched off at the mains before carrying out any form of cleaning maintenance yourself.
Why is an Effective Vent-Axia Ventilation system Important?
With people spending up to 90% of their time indoors, and with
growing evidence of pathogens moving around our buildings, there has
never been a more important time to make sure a building has effective
ventilation since it helps reduce COVID-19 transmission rates indoors.
In Fact, the UK Government recently stated “Research shows that being in
a room with fresh air can reduce your risk of infection from particles
by over 70%, as fresh air dilutes the particles*”. Using Vent-Axia Ventilation Systems to
either introduce, or increase fresh air circulation in the home is
therefore central to reducing infection rates. Independent guidance on
this has been published by a number of sources:
