HRV-ERV-AHU -INSTALLERS

Zenith Ventilation  “After more than a decade spent dedicated to the prevention of mould, condensation, musty smells, and poor indoor air quality a few things stand out today.

Skyrocketing electricity prices have resulted in changed consumer behaviours. I have found that people are not heating their houses in winter, rather just individual rooms with gas or electric devices and they rely on the blankets in the bedrooms. Whilst this is good for reducing electricity consumption, it is detrimental to the indoor air quality of the home. As air temperature decreases, relative humidity increases, this inverse relationship generates damp air. This is due to the fact that cold air cannot hold as much moisture as warm air. There are many available options today to maintain the perfect air temperature inside to prevent not only mould and structural damage, but health problems, these climate control devices such as heaters, air conditioning, air purifiers, and dehumidifiers.  Heat or Energy Recovery Ventilation (ERV) is also a great way of introducing fresh air without introducing the outdoor conditions, this is a way of ventilating without having to open your windows and it is very efficient as ERV’s have up to 95% temperature efficiency which will help to reduce electricity costs”.

The ventilation system extracts air from the wet rooms (kitchen, bathrooms, toilets and utility room) on a continual basis. A counter-flow heat exchanger with a thermal efficiency of up to 96 % recovers the heat from the extract air that would otherwise have been lost and transfers it to the supply air. Fresh heated supply air then flows into the living rooms. Supply air and extract air are totally separated from each other in order to keep the supply air clean. With Zenith Ventilation’s range of highly efficient and energy-saving mechanical residential ventilation solutions with heat recovery, suitable for new-build as well as for renovating, you will get the best possible indoor climate and even reduce your heating bill, as up to 96 % of the heat is recovered.

An ERV/ HRV is suitable for any home, office or building across the globe. From small units, granny flats, residential homes, office blocks to large factories, museums, wine cellars, aquatic centres, shopping centres, hotels and the list goes on.

WHY DO YOU NEED ONE?

An ERV / HRV will give you a warm well-ventilated home, office or commercial building. In winter, you can save on your electricity bills; in summer, you will reduce the need for air conditioning.

Keeping excess moisture out of your home benefits your building from structural damage, your furnishings from mould, and your health (properly ventilated homes that are neither too hot nor too damp are less likely to harbour dust mites, a very common trigger of asthma.) ERV / HRV’s help to keep the “climate” inside your home at a more constant level.
