Over the past few years, there has been an increasing number of airtightness tests performed in Europe either for specific highperformance buildings programmes or for a wide range of buildings in regulatory contexts. This has led to the development of competent tester … Continue reading →
Over the past few years, there has been an increasing number of airtightness tests performed in Europe either for specific high-performance buildings programmes or for a wide range of buildings in regulatory contexts. This has led to the development of … Continue reading →
Description There is a trend to perform more ventilation and air infiltration measurements in buildings, either to strengthen commissioning procedures or to learn from field data. This trend is stronger in nearly zero‐energy buildings projects or programmes given the significant share of … Continue reading →
Around 170 participants attended the joint 34th AIVC – 3rd TightVent- 2nd Cool Roofs’ – 1st venticool conference held in Athens, September 25-26, 2013! The programme consisted of five parallel sessions with contributions from 27 countries and international organizations. Over … Continue reading →
While building airtightness is a key concern in Nearly Zero-Energy Buildings in most European climates, there exists already a wide range of commercially-available products specifically designed to minimise leakage in building envelopes. The objective of this webinar is to give information … Continue reading →
The implementation of the EPBD recast puts increasing pressure on the market to achieve better building and ductwork airtightness: for most European climates and countries, good airtightness levels are necessary to achieve nearly zero-energy buildings. You will learn about legislative … Continue reading →

While it is generally accepted that a ventilation system in a building—whether natural, mechanical or hybrid—is needed to provide acceptable indoor air quality and prevent building damage, there are debates about the actual performance of these systems and how the … Continue reading →
Following the successful symposium held in Berlin in 2011 and 2012, TightVent is very pleased to pursue its collaboration with BUILDAIR. The 8th International BUILDAIR-Symposium “Airtight Buildings, Thermography and Ventilation Systems in Practice” offers a variety of presentations and firsthand … Continue reading →
Design, Implementation, Control and Durability: Feedback from Practice and Perspectives The AIVC workshop on airtightness which will be held April 18th-19th, 2013 in Rockville, near Washington DC. TightVent is pleased to partner with AIVC for this event which will also … Continue reading →
