The importance of ventilation

The average Fleming spends most of his or her time indoors. Yet we find that indoor air quality is often significantly worse than outdoors. Not only can this lead to health problems, low air quality and high humidity can further cause humidity problems such as condensation moisture concerns. The solution? Adding a ventilation system to your home.

What types of ventilation systems exist?

There are four different types of ventilation systems: from type A to type D. Type A is fully natural ventilation, while type D is a fully mechanical ventilation is. The most commonly used types in homes are type C (semi-mechanical), which is more likely to be used for basements, and type D (fully mechanical). At Aquaconsult, we focus mainly on fully mechanical ventilation. As such, it has numerous advantages.

A type D ventilation system

In a type D ventilation system, the supply and return air is fully mechanical via valves. It is also called a balance ventilation. That name comes from the fact that the system perfectly balances the air in the house. It offers complete control over how much air is exhausted and how much air is supplied. This is something you cannot achieve with other types of ventilation.

 

A ventilation system D has numerous advantages:

  • The main advantage of a type D mechanical ventilation system is the built-in heat exchanger. This recovers the heat and you are not overwhelmed by cold outside air in the winter months, but still gets fresh and clean air into your home.
  • Type D ventilation works smoothly regardless of the weather conditions outside.
  • The supplied air is filtered of pollen, dust, pollen and humidity is controlled.
  • Mechanical ventilation is an ideal weapon is against viruses, including the corona virus, and bacteria. Do you want to be completely protected against viruses in your own home? Then you can also have ionisation built into your balanced ventilation. Ionisation technology cleans the air of microparticles you would rather not inhale by filling the air with positively and negatively charged ions. Those ions fix themselves in the microparticles, preventing people in the room from inhaling those particles. For the installation of ionisation, we work together with our sister company AeroConsult.

This is how a ventilation system works D

Mechanical ventilation is an effective means of optimising the humidity in your home. A ventilation system D works as follows:

  • Mechanical air extraction is installed in places at risk of moisture problems, such as condensation. For most people, this is the kitchen and bathroom. Those places often face hot air (from cooking or washing), which would have a chance to condense on the cold surfaces. But with ventilation, condensation doesn't get a chance.
  • Warm air is exhausted through the balance ventilation.
  • The fresh air comes in at the same time and is warmed by the warmth of the air being directed outside. This way, people are not startled by waves of cold air coming in and it is easier and more economical to keep your home warm.
  • It also provides a fresh scent in the house. Something that is also not unimportant. After all, moisture problems can also cause a musty smell in the house.

Ventilation system D with AquaConsult

AquaConsult specialises in mechanical ventilation systems D. For this, we have two excellent appliances in our range:

Comfo Air

The first of these is the Comfo Air, a ventilation system type D (or balance ventilation). It is available in three different capacities: 350m³ per hour, 450m³ per hour or 600m³ per hour. So whatever suits you best depends on the size of your home.

Comfo Air Compact

The second ventilation system D is the Comfo Air Compact. A smaller model that is perfect for smaller houses and flats. It can be installed on the wall or on the ceiling and has a capacity of 230m³ per hour.

Tip: you can easily have these balanced ventilation systems extended with an air-to-air heat pump, which will also efficiently and energy-efficiently heat or cool your indoor spaces. Contact us for more information.

Installing a ventilation system D?

Are you convinced of the benefits of a ventilation system D? Then it's a good idea to let a expert. Not only will you then get advice on what is possible in your situation, you can also expect the installation to be done professionally and competently.
