Survey Reveals Quick Results From Ventilation Systems

A recent survey of 200 homeowners who had bought a ventilation system from EnviroVent revealed how over half of these householders had experienced improvements to their health or home within two weeks of its installation.

Out of 200 customers, all stated that they had seen an improvement to either their homes or their health as a result, with over a third of customers (37%) saying they had experienced improvements to their home or health within a week and just over half had experienced improvements within two weeks or less. The survey also revealed that 1 in 8 home owners had bought a ventilation unit for health reasons, mainly as they suffered with asthma.

91% of people who had bought a ventilation product did so to deal with condensation, which was closely followed by dealing with mould (69%) and a musty or damp smell in the house (32.5%). 95% of the 182 customers who had the unit installed because of condensation noticed an improvement in this.

Rebecca McLean, Marketing Director at EnviroVent, said: “Poor indoor air quality is a problem for many homes, which may trigger or exacerbate health issues associated with respiratory or dermatological problems. Poor ventilation is also an issue for homes too, causing condensation-dampness and mould, which can look unsightly and damage the fabric of the building. It is encouraging to hear that customers experienced improvements to either their health or home so quickly and we are keen to spread the message to other home owners who have put up with stale, musty air in their homes for too long!”

Typical customer comments included: “Our house was so bad with condensation and now we don’t get any at all. The mould has all dried up too and the horrible damp smell that we suffered from for years has gone.”
