Make Your Home Safe, Breathable, and Retrofit-Ready
Before upgrading your property with solar, insulation, or a heat pump, your home needs to be structurally healthy, breathable, and hazard-free.
Three often-overlooked but critical services EcoGlow provides as part of PAS 2035- compliant whole-home retrofit:
- Ventilation Improvements
- Damp Prevention & Rectification
- Asbestos Surveys & Removals

Ventilation Measures
Why It Matters:
Upgrades like insulation or airtight windows can trap stale air — increasing condensation, mould, and indoor air pollution unless balanced with ventilation.
Our Solutions:
- Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR)
- Decentralised Mechanical extract ventilation (DMEV)
- Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) systems
- Bathroom & kitchen extractor upgrades
- Whole-home airflow assessment
Damp Surveys & Remediation
Why It Matters:
Damp destroys insulation, compromises retrofit measures, and damages structure. It must be diagnosed before energy upgrades begin.
Our Process:
- Site visit + moisture mapping
- Penetrating/rising damp diagnosis
- Root-cause fix (e.g., drainage, pointing, insulation strategy)
- Full rectification + recheck
Common Issues We Solve:
- Black mould behind insulation
- Cold spots on internal walls
- Rising damp below floor level
- Blocked ventilation paths
Asbestos Surveys & Safe Removal
Why It Matters:
Many UK homes built pre-2000 contain asbestos in ceilings, insulation, soffits, or boiler areas. It’s a major health risk and must be professionally assessed before any retrofit work begins.
What We Offer:
- Asbestos Management Survey (non-intrusive)
- Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys
- Air testing & lab analysis
- Safe, certified removal (HSE-licensed teams)
Typical Locations Checked:
- Soffits and roofing
- Floor tiles and pipe lagging
- Heating systems
- Insulation materials
Is ventilation required under PAS 2035?
Yes — airtight measures must be balanced with airflow by law.
What if damp is found after insulation?
We’ll carry out targeted rectification and moisture monitoring before continuing with installs.
Does every home need an asbestos check?
Homes built before 2000 should always be assessed before works begin.
