The AIVC is happy to announce the release of a new addition to the AIVC Ventilation Information Paper (VIP) series dealing with trends in building ventilation requirements and inspection in various countries.
The 14th International Buildair Symposium, themed "Airtight Buildings, Thermography, and Practical Ventilation Systems," is scheduled for May 16-17, 2025, in Hanover, Germany.
The event will offer a unique opportunity to find out about the latest developments and best practices, to highlight particular challenges in airtightness testing and to exchange experiences across national borders.
The Call for Papers is now open, with submissions due by September 20, 2024.

Particulate matter (PM) is one of the most critical pollutants affecting indoor air quality (IAQ). Hence, reducing the exposure of occupants to indoor PM pollution is critical. Ventilation systems for commercial and residential buildings are instrumental for achieving this goal.

Various field studies have shown that in a vast majority of European countries the quality of installed residential ventilation systems is poor, with a large proportion of systems having significantly lower installed flow rates than the required values, or having poor energy performance due to flaws in design, installation or operation. This paper analyses the potential impact of different policy options for an EU-level approach for inspection of stand-alone ventilation systems in residential buildings until 2050.
