New AIVC Publications on Gas-Phase Air Cleaning

We are pleased to announce the release of two new AIVC publications:

English

CR21: Performance of Portable Gas-Phase Air Cleaners and Impact on Indoor Air Quality. A Literature Review

This report is a deliverable from IEA-EBC Annex 78 “Supplementing Ventilation with Gas-phase Air Cleaning, Implementation and Energy Implications”. Annex 78 also looked at a new test method for gas-phase air cleaning technologies, how gas-phase air cleaning technologies may partly substitute for outside air, the energy impact of using air cleaners to improve indoor air quality and the long-term performance of gas-phase air cleaners.

CR20: A method for testing gas-phase air cleaners

Worldwide, there is an increasing number of publications related to air cleaning and there is also an increasing sale of gas phase air cleaning products. This puts a demand for verifying the influence of using air cleaning on indoor air quality, comfort, well-being and health. It is thus important to learn whether air cleaning can supplement ventilation with respect to improving air quality i.e. whether it can partly substitute the ventilation rates required by standards.

Webinar: Inspection of Ventilation Systems in Non-Residential Buildings – Recordings Now Available

We’re happy to announce that the recordings and presentation slides from our recent webinar, “Inspection of ventilation systems in non-residential buildings” held on June 5, 2025), are now available on our website.

AIVC Technical Note #74 – Smart Ventilation in Residential Buildings

We are pleased to announce the release of AIVC Technical Note #74: Smart Ventilation in Residential Buildings—a comprehensive review aimed at summarizing the available evidence on the benefits of implementing smart ventilation solutions in homes.

This publication focuses on ventilation strategies and their effectiveness, which consists of IAQ benefits, non-IAQ benefits (such as thermal comfort and noise), minimizing energy consumption and minimizing utility bills, and other advantages related to indoor environmental quality (IEQ).

English

TN 74: Smart Ventilation in Residential Buildings

An ideal ventilation system should be robust and capable of providing thermal comfort and good indoor air quality (IAQ) that safeguards occupant health while also minimising space conditioning costs and reducing auxiliary energy use for fans.
