As a landlord (or someone responsible for managing property), you may already know that maintaining a safe, habitable environment for tenants is a legal and ethical obligation. With the introduction of Awaab’s Law in the UK, the regulatory context has shifted significantly. Although the law currently applies principally to social housing, its implications are already resonating across the broader private-rented sector and warrant your attention now. At the same time, one of the most persistent issues in rental property is damp, condensation and mould, and that’s where proper ventilation, heating and air-conditioning systems come into play. 

 

At Blue Mountain Air Conditioning, we specialise in HVAC, ventilation and air-conditioning solutions, so we’ve written this blog to help landlords understand their compliance obligations under Awaab’s Law and how investing in good air conditioning and ventilation can help avoid mould, improve tenant health and reduce risk of non-compliance.
