Our Sensitive Choice approved partners at Pro Clima New Zealand have produced an insightful video series outlining the key to building healthier homes for Kiwis.

In this introductory episode, Francis Mountjoy and Jon Davies from Pro Clima explain the importance of airtightness in building homes. Starting with a blower door test, they explore how even a tiny 1mm gap over a 1m2 in a building’s airtightness layer can lead to significant energy loss and moisture problems. Discover how proper airtightness can make insulation more effective and prevent mould and structural damage. Learn why creating a continuous control layer around your home is key to a healthy, efficient, and durable building.

Pro Clima New Zealand marks 20 years of INTELLO®, the leading Intelligent Air Barrier for healthier, energy-efficient, and durable homes. To celebrate, Pro Clima has released a short documentary series comparing early 1900s villas with modern builds, exploring why many new homes still face issues with moisture, cold, and long-term structural problems.
