Leading British ventilation manufacturer @VentAxia is excited to announce the launch of its latest @CIBSE -approved Continuing Professional Development (#CPD) course: ‘Introduction to #HeatRecovery #Ventilation’.
Designed to give attendees a way to enhance their professional knowledge and career opportunities, the course provides a greater understanding of heat recovery ventilation, how it works, why it works, and its benefits for commercial applications. This new CPD complements Vent-Axia’s existing CIBSE-approved course on ‘Legislation for Commercial Ventilation’, providing delegates with valuable knowledge on ventilation compliance.
Continuing Professional Development is a long-term commitment to undertake, maintain, improve, and broaden knowledge and skills. CIBSE (Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers) members are required by the Code of Professional Conduct to maintain professional competence, with CIBSE providing clear guidance and support for professional development to enable members to develop their career. Vent-Axia aims to aid construction professionals in furthering their ventilation knowledge and skills with its new CPD focusing on the importance of heat recovery ventilation as the UK moves towards its 2050 Net-Zero target.

.@VentAxia has launched the Lo-Carbon Sentinel Econiq-Cool (KERS) in partnership with @KersRecovery, introducing a pioneering 2-in-1 solution that provides #renewable #hotwater and free cooling.
The system combines Vent-Axia’s latest flagship Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (#MVHR) unit with a KERS Coolboost Heat Pump, marking the latest addition to Vent-Axia’s growing cooling range. Designed to help housebuilders manage overheating in new build homes, the highly energy-efficient MVHR unit features new integrated controls that enable seamless communication with the hot water air source heat pump. As a result, the Lo-Carbon Sentinel Econiq-Cool (KERS) improves indoor air quality for households while delivering exceptional levels of comfort, intelligently heating hot water and cooling habitable spaces.
The Lo-Carbon Sentinel Econiq-Cool (KERS) provides housebuilders with a compliant and effective cooling solution that meets the requirements of Part O of the Building Regulations and CIBSE TM59. The system monitors comfort temperatures defined by the user, and when cooler outdoor air is insufficient to reduce internal temperatures via the 100% summer bypass, it automatically signals the heat pump to activate cooling.
The Lo-Carbon Sentinel Econiq-Cool (KERS) then combines the airflow from the MVHR with the cool exhaust air from the heat pump via built-in dampers. This integrated approach delivers exceptional comfort and functionality all year-round, while complying with Part O and TM59, simultaneously heating hot water and cooling habitable spaces.

Built environment leaders delivered a unified message – ‘timber can meet climate and housing goals now’ – at the recent UK Timber Design Conference in London.
#SustainableDevelopers, #architects, #engineers and #ConstructionExperts are calling on the Government to supercharge its housing goals by backing timber in construction – fully recognising it as a scalable, low-carbon solution, already supported by millions in private investment and with the existing capacity to build more today.

Beyond compliance: the competitive edge of #DPPs.
So, what exactly is a DPP? Simply put, it’s a structured digital dataset that follows a product throughout its entire life-cycle. Imagine scanning a QR code and instantly accessing vital product information, such as who made it, how it performs, what standards it meets, and its environmental impact.
This is about more than meeting regulations; it’s about allowing everyone in the supply chain – from designers and contractors to regulators and building owners – to make quicker, more informed decisions.

ALT For decades, the UK construction industry has been grappling with persistent challenges around material quality, the need to plug skills shortages, and how to overcome project delivery bottlenecks. These are pressing issues, but arguably we have been looking at them the wrong way. One way or another, they all stem from construction’s disconnected approach to data management. Get that right, and we could unlock unprecedented levels of innovation and efficiency gains.
