A healthier home environment with Tim Sharp, head of architecture at the University of Strathclyde.
Our latest episode challenges the notion that energy efficiency can coexist with optimal indoor air quality without regular testing and innovation. Join us as we address the widespread misconceptions surrounding ventilation in both new and existing UK homes, emphasizing the necessity of systematic evaluations to enhance building performance.
We shine a light on the often-overlooked cultural and habitual influences that shape our ventilation practices. Learn how the construction industry can draw inspiration from other sectors by prioritizing user-friendly design and effective communication. We explore the transformative potential of home user manuals, akin to appliance quick-start guides, and the vital importance of improving public understanding of their living spaces to prevent pollutant build-up.
The complexities of maintaining adequate ventilation in older buildings and the challenges of meeting compliance standards. Our conversation with Tim Sharp highlights the critical role architecture plays in fostering healthier environments through collaboration among architects, designers, and contractors. As we navigate the intricate connections between ventilation, health, and building performance, discover how innovative solutions and environmental data can empower residents to make informed decisions for more sustainable living.
