Recent years have seen important evolutions in building ventilation regulations, inspection practices, and market developments across Europe, with significant differences between countries. While Spain has progressively moved towards performance-based IAQ regulations and the adoption of smart ventilation systems, France is transitioning from prescriptive to performance-based frameworks while maintaining its long-standing tradition of mechanical ventilation in dwellings.

Climate change is increasingly recognized as a driver of indoor environmental health risks, particularly through the promotion of mould growth, including strains resistant to heat and fungicides. As people spend over 80% of their time indoors, the growing vulnerability of buildings to elevated humidity and moisture poses a significant public health risk. Mould exposure has been linked to respiratory and cardiovascular illnesses, allergic reactions, cognitive decline, and diminished quality of life—outcomes reflected in rising Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs).
