Sick building syndrome?The Controlled Mechanical Ventilation is the right solution!

​Do you know what is the "sick building syndrome"?It is a disease  affecting  the people living in a building  characterized by a very low health level  as poor air circulation, condensation on the walls, mold, stagnant gas, presence of smells and pollutants released from furniture (such as formaldehyde) and from the house itself.The Controlled Mechanical Ventilation can be a valuable remedy.This ventilation system is born in the '70s, years in which the way of building changed deeply: it intervened on the thermal insulation of walls and windows in order to waste less energy.  In this way, however, it was  affected  the health of the building, as the replacement of indoor air and then the evacuation of indoor pollutants that used to occurred due to natural infiltration ceased , generating new concerns due to condensation on walls and the resulting mold and stagnant gases, smells and pollutants resulting from formaldehyde and other chemicals emitted from furniture and the building itself.It was projected then a forced air system always working and able to replace the air outlet  that no longer existed, but with one key difference: the ability to carefully control the flow, minimizing the air requirement  and then the waste of energy.This is the origin of Controlled Mechanical Ventilation, a ventilation system that from the 70s up to today allows a great improvement of the quality of the environment we live in.http://vmc.irsap.it/by IrsapOfficial
