Infiltration

The uncontrolled or unintended movement of outdoor air into a building through cracks, gaps, and openings in the building envelope.

Passive Solar Design

Passive solar design utilises building elements to optimise natural light and heat. Discover how passive solar design works, its benefits in energy efficiency, and its role in creating sustainable and comfortable buildings for both residential and commercial applications.

A-weighted Sound Level (dBA)

Acoustic Impedance is a measure of the resistance that a material or medium presents to the transmission of sound waves. It plays a crucial role in understanding the interaction of sound with surfaces and boundaries in acoustics and ultrasound imaging.

Microgeneration

Learn about Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR), how it works, its benefits in enhancing indoor air quality, and its role in minimising energy wastage in residential and commercial structures for energy-efficient and comfortable living and working spaces.

Condensing Boiler

Condensing boilers are a technology that maximises energy efficiency in heating systems. Discover how they work, their benefits, and their role in reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in residential and commercial heating.
