• Ventilate the property adequately! We know it can seem silly to open windows when you are trying to heat the property but windows MUST be kept open for a reasonable time throughout the day. The air must be allowed to circulate.
• Ensure the property is properly heated – this means keeping heating on low constantly.
• Use window vents where fitted
• Increase ventilation in the kitchen and bathroom when in use by using your fan or opening the window/door
• Ensure your extractor fan is cleaned frequently
• Ventilate cupboards and wardrobes
• Do not push furniture right up against radiators- this stops heat getting out.
• Clean the bathroom properly using anti mould spray
