Minutes:

Executive considered a report of the Portfolio Holder – Housing that sought approval to appoint EnvironVent Ltd to install Positive Input Ventilation systems for Bolsover District Council Housing department as and when required.

 

Positive Input Ventilation Systems were a proven concept to deliver fresh filtered air into a property at a continuous rate. The Council had been fitting them in tenanted properties for the last 5 years with excellent results where major issues had been experienced with mould and condensation. The unit draws filtered and clean air from outside and gently ventilate the property from a central position on the landing or central hallway. Moisture laden air is diluted, displaced and replaced to control humidity levels within the property. By doing this it eliminates surface condensation and lowers levels of humidity within the property which are the breeding grounds for mould. This was backed up with a 7 year warranty and free damp survey service.
