Does anyone have any experience with 'Airex' smart air bricks, particularly in relation to suspended wooden floors?

They seem an interesting idea, but not sure how real the benefits would be or if there is a better way (without ripping up the floor to insulate).]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=17674&Focus=299407#Comment_299407 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=17674&Focus=299407#Comment_299407 Tue, 27 Dec 2022 18:47:59 +0000 Coverley http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=17674&Focus=299430#Comment_299430 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=17674&Focus=299430#Comment_299430 Thu, 29 Dec 2022 17:19:14 +0000 chrisjackson184
From the guide installation looks fairly straightforward, the units are battery powered, would be interesting to know how these perform outside in the cold.]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=17674&Focus=299435#Comment_299435 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=17674&Focus=299435#Comment_299435 Thu, 29 Dec 2022 19:49:27 +0000 Peter_in_Hungary Posted By: chrisjackson184the units are battery powered,
I wonder how long the batteries last and what indication of battery end of life?

Fit and forget? or fit and forget to change the batteries and so loose either all ventilation or just get permanent ventilation like a traditional air brick.]]> http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=17674&Focus=299481#Comment_299481 http://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=17674&Focus=299481#Comment_299481 Wed, 04 Jan 2023 09:51:43 +0000 fostertom Posted By: chrisjackson184it appears there is a humidity sensor on a fairly short arm behind the brick. No real clue how this would measure humidity further into the underfloor voidYes, that's a question that also arises with trickle vents that include a humidity sensor - in that case not even on a short arm but just in the incoming air stream. Yet those sensors seem to be very effective in regulating per-room/as-needed ventilation in 24/7 powered-central-extract ventilation systems such as Peter Rickaby's https://passivehouseplus.ie/blogs/breaking-the-mould-in-thamesmead]]>
