The recordings and the slides of our latest webinar "Using Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) sensors to measure Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) for ventilation control" held on 4 September, 2018 and jointly organised with the IEA EBC Annex 68 “Indoor Air Quality Design and Control in Low Energy Residential Buildings”  are now available online at: 

The 2018 AIVC workshop was held in Wellington, New Zealand on 19-20 March. The theme of the workshop was how airtightness and ventilation can contribute to better buildings. The workshop brought together researchers, policy makers, designers and practitioners.

venticool has just released a new report in the context of IEA EBC Annex 62 ventilative cooling.

This background report Status and recommendations for better implementation of ventilative cooling in standards, legislation and compliance tools, presents insights on recommendations into how ventilative cooling is integrated in EN standards, ISO standards, national standards, national legislation and national compliance tools. It is intended for building designers, builders and experts working with building energy performance standards, legislation and compliance tools.
