How We Calculate Your Savings

Energy Savings

Research shows moisture can reduce insulation effectiveness by up to 186.7%. Our calculations are based on the severity of damp: mild damp (15% savings), moderate damp (30% savings), severe damp (50%+ savings). Homes with no visible damp still benefit from improved ventilation (3-5% savings).

Repair Cost Prevention

Average damp repair costs range from £500-£5000. Our vents prevent moisture accumulation, avoiding costly remedial work, redecorating, and structural repairs.

Environmental Impact

CO₂ savings calculated from reduced energy consumption. Each tonne of CO₂ saved is equivalent to approximately 46 mature trees absorbing CO₂ for one year.

Based on Independent Research

Moisture Impact on Insulation Performance

Scientific research has revealed that high humidity can reduce insulation effectiveness by up to 186.7% in some materials. This means homes with damp cavity walls may be losing 2-3 times more heat than those with dry walls. The Anti-Damp Vent system actively extracts moisture before it can compromise your insulation, maintaining optimal thermal performance year-round.

NHBC Requirements

"The Value of Ventilation" - NHBC research demonstrates that proper ventilation in cavity walls prevents moisture accumulation and maintains thermal performance. The study shows that damp walls can lose up to 30% more heat than dry walls. NHBC recommends ventilation every 0.9m length of wall on the damp proof course, which equates to approximately 1 vent per 2m² of wall area.

BRE Reports on Moisture in Buildings

The Building Research Establishment has published extensive research on unintended consequences of poor ventilation, including increased energy consumption, structural damage, and health issues. Their studies form the basis for current building regulations on ventilation.
