Energy efficiency vs. indoor climate?
The affects of climate change, virtually air-tight buildings for reduced energy consumption and inadequate room ventilation increasingly lead to mold infestation due to dampness or fogging, or high concentrations of toxic substances in the room air. A bad indoor climate can cause health problems such as eye or throat irritation, headache, respiratory infections and fatigue. Today, indoor air pollution can be found already in one out of four rooms.
Live with as little pollution as possible!

The growing need to consider environmental aspects in building design places a responsibility on the professionals involved, irrespective of whether an existing building is restored or a new building is erected. Strong insulation in a building, for example, keeps the heat in when it is cold, but also retains the indoor air pollutants.
Competenza's indoor diagnostics team provides the skills and techniques for subsequent detection and removal of indoor pollutants and can give best practice advice at the forefront of any building project.
