Our bodies need good rest and sleep as part of regular recuperation to enable us to perform our normal activities in life. Sleep is an integral part of human life and the importance and significance of good bedroom IAQ, indoor air pollution, ventilation as well as bedroom thermal environment during sleep cannot be emphasized more. Yet, there is a paucity of information in the scientific literature in this regard, especially pertaining to IAQ in sleeping environments and sleep quality. Are our bedrooms adequately ventilated at all times to maintain good IAQ?
We are pleased to announce that the AIVC -TightVent - venticool 2023 Conference: “Ventilation, IEQ and health in sustainable buildings” is now accepting abstracts & proposals for topical sessions. The Conference will be held during 4-5 October 2023 in Copenhagen at the premises of Aalborg University.
The AIVC invites you to register to the following webinars organized in November & December 2022. Participation is free for all, but prior registration is required.
The transition to climate neutrality has a large impact on the job of building and HVAC designers, manufacturers, installers, investors, etc. Renovating our building stock to make it more energy efficient is a huge task. Both research and practice prove that users have an important impact on this performance. Human-building interactions, like window opening, thermostat and solar shading usage, affect the performance of the building and HVAC systems.
We are happy to announce the release of AIVC's Technical note #70: 40 years to build tight and ventilate right: From infiltration to smart ventilation!
