LoginThe inspection of ventilation systems in non-residential buildings is a growing priority across Europe, driven by the need for better energy efficiency and indoor air quality. Inspection protocols can be challenging to develop as, unlike for residential buildings, a wide range of building types and use has to be covered. Moreover, inspection protocols vary significantly between countries due to different national policies and building practices.
