Our Technical Manager shares his thoughts on our latest Blog!

Why effective ventilation in existing social housing needs to consider more than airflow – from tenant acceptability and extract points to maintenance, performance and evidence.

"The total buy in of all the stakeholders is key to any ventilation system within the social housing realm, especially when a ventilation system is changed or introduced. To achieve this, education is key to explain the importance of ventilation to the health of the tenants and the building, and how the chosen ventilation system works as a whole, not just the fan.

This education needs to be ongoing as the tenants change and the other stakeholders.”

Our latest article looks at dMEV in existing social housing and why getting the overall ventilation strategy right matters.

Welsh Approved Document F 2026 – Moving Beyond the Fan

Just because a fan is running, does that mean a home is adequately ventilated?

With the revised Welsh Approved Document F guidance coming into effect on 4 March 2027, subject to transitional arrangements, it's time to look beyond whether a fan is working and focus on how the entire ventilation system is performing.

Our latest blog explores:

✅ Why accurate airflow measurement matters
✅ The move towards powered flow hood testing
✅ What the changes mean for Welsh social housing providers
✅ The importance of reliable evidence when investigating damp and mould

At Vortice, we believe effective ventilation isn't just about installing a fan. It's about understanding, measuring and demonstrating performance.

A kitchen. A bathroom. Two mechanical extract points.

But those two points may need to provide continuous ventilation for the whole dwelling.

That’s one of the challenges housing providers can face when introducing dMEV into existing homes.

The article uses the example of a three-bedroom home with a whole-dwelling continuous ventilation rate of 31 l/s. If two conventional 100 mm dMEV fans are each delivering around 10–12 l/s, their combined airflow could be approximately 20–24 l/s.

It highlights an important point: specifying dMEV isn't simply about whether an individual fan works.

It’s about whether the available extract points can collectively deliver what the whole dwelling requires – in a way that works for the resident too.

Awaab’s Law comes into force in Scotland today – 6 October 2026.

The new requirements apply to social and private landlords and introduce clear statutory timescales for dealing with damp and mould:

🔍 Investigate within 10 working days
📝 Provide a written summary within 3 working days
🔧 Where substantial damp or mould is found, commence repairs within 5 working days
🏠 Social landlords must complete the required repair work within a maximum of 20 working days from commencement.

But importantly, it isn't just about removing mould.

The Scottish Government guidance states that repairs should tackle the root cause and help prevent the problem from recurring. It specifically highlights inadequate ventilation as a potential contributor to persistent damp and mould.

This makes effective, maintainable ventilation an important part of the conversation.

Our new F4L – Fan for Life has been designed with long-term housing maintenance in mind. Its modular design allows key components to be replaced quickly, while Smart Tracker data can provide greater visibility of fan operation.

When specifying ventilation for existing social housing, should we start with the fan – or with the dwelling?

Existing homes can present very different challenges to new-build properties. There may be limited extract points, existing ductwork and practical restrictions on what can be installed.

So before choosing a dMEV fan, we need to ask:

1) What does the dwelling actually require?
2) What airflow needs to be achieved?
3) How many suitable extract points are available?
4) What will work with the existing installation?
5) And will the solution be acceptable to the tenant?

Our latest article explores why getting dMEV right in existing social housing means looking at the whole dwelling, rather than simply replacing one fan with another.

Let's have a little trip back to the 1980s…

We recently received an enquiry about the V-Range Built-in Fan – one of the early Vortice models that helped pave the way for today’s Vario range.

Designed for through-the-wall ventilation with automatic shutters, the V-Range was available in three sizes: 15/6" AI, 23/9" ARI and 30/12" ARI.

It’s always great to see these older products resurface and look back at how Vortice ventilation has evolved over the decades.
