A landmark waterside new build residential development only minutes from Canary Wharf is proving a hit with potential buyers, with 60% sold within two months of going on the market and almost a year before any being ready for occupation. <br> <br> Part of the reason for the success of the development is the feeling of light and space coupled with quiet, achieved in part through strategic use of acoustic background ventilators from Passivent. <br> <br> Each of the 157 apartments features two of Passivent’s Acoustic Energy Saver Vents with Canopy Grilles, colour matched to RAL7037 matt, and integrated into the double glazed window units supplied by Travis Perkins for subcontractor LSC Facades. <br> <br> Humidity sensitive, the vents automatically open and close depending on water vapour levels within, removing excess moisture generated by cooking, washing etc, and ensuring an adequate supply of fresh air in line with latest Building Regulations without unnecessary heat loss. The vents also reduce external noise penetration from the road outside into the homes to just 34dB.<br> <br>
