The next quick win for your retrofit programme

We know you have targets to improve the energy efficiency of your housing stock - along with all the other challenges you face - and we think we can help.

AirEx Floorvent is a smart, cost-effective solution that is applicable to many homes and improves energy efficiency without intrusive work. It helps landlords meet EPC targets without major renovations and disruption to residents. It is suitable for homes with suspended floors which are often older and can be challenging to retrofit in other ways.

A smart, cost-effective solution to improve energy efficiency without intrusive work

Floorvent replaces traditional air bricks with intelligent airflow control. It reduces heat loss while keeping ventilation effective. Homes stay warmer, energy bills drop, and RSLs can improve SAP scores by 2–4 points and uplift EPC brands. As it’s a smart, connected system, we can also help you monitor the health of your homes and identify maintenance issues early.

With a cost per SAP point similar to loft or cavity wall insulation, Floorvent is even easier to install. And as it is suitable for most homes with suspended timber floors, an area of homes that is often neglected, it is the next quick win for retrofit projects. Lofts and cavity walls are obvious things to do, why not suspended floors too?

Addressing resident hesitation with low-impact solutions

Many residents worry about retrofit disruption or don’t see the benefits. Floorvent takes less than an hour to install outside of the property and then only a few minutes inside to fit the hub, and it works automatically. It provides improved comfort straight away and keeps homes warm while preventing underfloor damp and condensation.

The simplicity and lack of disruption means resident acceptance rates are high and Floorvent can be fitted in almost all suitable homes. This high success rate helps with delivery of retrofit projects so housing providers can roll out upgrades smoothly and efficiently, ensuring high resident acceptance and satisfaction.

Maximising impact with limited budgets and Wave 3 funding

AirEx Floorvent delivers energy savings and EPC improvements at a fraction of the cost of major retrofits. It’s a budget-friendly, high-impact solution that is eligible for SHF Wave 3 funding.

It helps RSLs improve energy efficiency quickly, easily, and affordably. With ECO4, SHDF, and Warm Homes funding available, landlords can achieve fast, cost-effective upgrades at a lower cost.

As well as making homes warmer, the system also monitors the space under floors. Properties at risk of condensation or timber rot can be identified early, helping with asset management and enabling proactive maintenance.
