Indoor Air Quality Research - help needed!

Submitted by birgit on

AECOM and Fourwalls have been commissioned by the Government to undertake a study of indoor air quality in naturally ventilated homes in England constructed to Part L / F 2010 of the Building Regulations. 
 
The findings from this study will help inform future standards, and ensure any published guidance is appropriate for the health and wellbeing of occupants living in increasingly airtight homes.  

We are approaching developers and housing providers to request their assistance with identifying suitable homes.
