Healthy Homes

Right temperature, right ventilation

A healthy home is warm and well ventilated. Not too hot, not too cold, and with the right ventilation to avoid damp, mould and discomfort. But too often, homes miss the mark. Poor air quality, high energy costs, draughts and underheating are common issues. These can affect comfort and wellbeing of residents who then turn off heating or close ventilators which can result in condensation, damp and mould, in turn leading to potential health risks.

Many Social Landlords are adopting monitoring systems to provide data and insights to help identify these issues in homes and support residents with upgrading the home or providing practical tips for a healthy home.

At AirEx we are big believers in the value of monitoring, data and insights. But we also think that the home itself should respond to these signals, not just report on them. Monitoring is great, but action is better! So our systems are designed to provide insights and take action - smart data-driven control.

We have demonstrated this approach with AirEx Floorvent which brings smart control to the underfloor void. It uses sensors to monitor temperature and humidity, combines this with weather data, and adapts ventilation to prevent damp while keeping heat in.

It opens when airflow is needed, and closes to reduce draughts and improve energy performance. It’s a simple upgrade that protects both the home and the resident.

It also collects and shares data on property conditions. This helps landlords monitor the underfloor health of a home and reduces maintenance.

Monitoring of the home and action to improve energy efficiency, all in one system.

Smart control where it’s needed

How it works?

Towards whole home smart ventilation

Smart control for the whole home will offer a true alternative to trickle vents and expensive systems like MVHR. Combined with AirEx data and insights, it will help future-proof homes for changing use, improved insulation and climate demands.

As part of our journey to providing a smart ventilation and monitoring system for the whole home we are now launching our room-level sensor system to early pilot partners. Our sensors integrate with our home hub and the Floorvent system to provide a full picture of the health of the home, including under the floor.

And building on this, we are also developing and piloting the smart ventilation system that will provide the action as well as the monitoring. The goal is simple. To provide ventilation that works for residents and for the home.
