Water guzzling WC’s, maybe as many as 300 million across Europe are wasting around 4 billion litres of water per year, says the UWLA on World Toilet Day.

World Ventilation Day aims to raise awareness of the importance of ventilation as a crucial part of enabling health and wellbeing. It also seeks to recognise and celebrate the ventilation and IAQ community.
When businesses quantify their carbon emissions and make up for what they have produced through carbon offset programmes, they become carbon neutral. Along with avoiding them and reducing them, offsetting carbon emissions is a crucial step in comprehensive climate action.
Because greenhouse gases, such CO2, spread equally throughout the atmosphere, their concentration is essentially constant throughout the earth. Consequently, it makes little difference where on Earth emissions are created or avoided in terms of the global concentration of greenhouse gases and the greenhouse gas effect.
So, emissions that cannot be reduced locally can be compensated for by carbon offset initiatives in other cities.
For instance, using afforestation, renewable energy sources, or forest conservation can accomplish this.
The launch of Mitsubishi Electric’s WizardX-G07 E-OU Air Handling Unit (AHU) offers all the features of the original product, with the addition of utilising lower GWP R32 refrigerant, helping to make a significant contribution to minimising environmental impact.
The Climaveneta WizardX AHUs utilise a combination of Mr Slim R32 Power Inverter heat pump technology, energy efficient thermal wheel heat recovery technology and have an integrated controls system, making them highly advanced, efficient and easy to install and commission.
In this week’s article I’m going to be talking about R32 refrigerant, as the benefits of using this refrigerant and compatible air conditioning systems go beyond just helping the environment.
A new, highly efficient, water to water heat pump for the multi-residential market, the Ecodan Hydrodan, which utilises a 5th generation heat network.
