This guide, released by the Building Research Association of New Zealand (BRANZ), is a literature review of recent research on indoor air quality that is relevant to New Zealand’s indoor environments (residential houses, schools, preschools and age care facilities). The document looks at the health effects, the pollutants and the building characteristics. Where possible, New Zealand research is presented. Emphasis is placed on gaps in the knowledge in order to identify future research in New Zealand.
The review process of the abstracts submitted for the 38th AIVC – 6th TightVent – 4th venticool conference: “Ventilating healthy low-energy buildings” to be held in Nottingham, UK on September 13-14, 2017 will start on Monday 6 March 2017. All abstracts received before Sunday evening will be included in the review process.
The final programme for the AIVC workshop: “Is ventilation the answer to indoor air quality control in buildings? Do we need performance-based approaches? to be held in Brussels, Belgium on 14-15 March, 2017 is now available.
The Building Research Association of New Zealand (BRANZ) has recently commissioned a literature review of Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) research that has been conducted in New Zealand or addresses issues identified in the New Zealand context. The initial idea was to focus on IAQ in residential houses, however, schools, preschools and age care facilities have also been included. The review looks at the health effects, the pollutants and the building characteristics.
The abstract submission deadline for the 38th AIVC - 6th TightVent - 4th venticool conference: “Ventilating healthy low-energy buildings” to be held in Nottingham, UK on September 13-14, 2017 has been extended.

2013 marked the start of IEA EBC Annex 62 and thus a four-year period with great developments in the field of ventilative cooling. This year, the annex is coming to a closure and finds its participants working hard to deliver the project’s final outcomes.
The AIVC workshop: “Is ventilation the answer to indoor air quality control in buildings? Do we need performance-based approaches? will take place in Brussels, Belgium on 14-15 March, 2017. The event aims to identify the pros and cons of performance-based approaches and metrics that can be considered to assess the indoor air quality (IAQ) performance of ventilation systems, as well as to draft guidelines for their use in standards and regulations.
