Hi All
I would like to know are the ugly trickle vents on upvc windows essential. This afternoon I spoke to local building regulations regarding trickle vents.
He said that trickle vents are no longer a requirement as long as there is a night latch on the windows. Apparently this is a new local government ruling publicised in the new Buildings Approved document F effective march/april 2007.
I briefly checked this document online and I couldn't find reference to this ruling. Can someone please shed light on this subject. On my existing windows I have no tricle vents but night latches. I don't fancy having trickle vents fitted. All help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
