Proper ventilation is crucial in homes due to its profound impact on indoor air quality and the overall well-being of occupants. As it has a significant effect on both indoor air quality and occupants’ general well-being, proper ventilation in homes is essential. It helps maintain a comfortable living environment, especially in seasons with extreme temperatures. The experts from Vasco tell us more
What are the benefits of ventilation in the home?
A safe and healthy living environment is largely dependent on effective ventilation systems, such as Vasco centralised and Lunos de-centralised ventilation systems with and without heat recovery. By continuously replacing stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air, these systems greatly improve the quality of indoor air. Certain models increase energy efficiency by repurposing heat from the outgoing air through the use of heat recovery.
Additionally, by improving overall home energy efficiency and being in line with sustainable living practices, these systems help lower the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC). So, energy efficiency, ease of installation, and noise reduction are just a few of the important factors that benefit proper ventilation to ensure a healthier indoor environment.
What is the difference between centralised ventilation systems from de-centralised ones?
Decentralised ventilation systems consist of discrete units positioned across a structure, functioning independently and offering enhanced adaptability, simpler upkeep, as well as increased energy efficiency in particular areas. They fit in smaller spaces because they are easier to install.
Centralised systems, on the other hand, use a single unit for the entire building. They provide whole-building control. The ductwork needed is more extensive. Building specifications need to be assessed for both centralised & decentralised systems, as each project may also have access, maintenance complexity and overventilation issues. The decision is influenced by elements such as the building’s size, design, and energy-saving objectives.
What benefits do Vasco systems provide?
Vasco Ventilation ducting systems supplied by Partel keeps a safe and hygienic indoor environment all year round. They have an electrostatic and antibacterial filter which significantly reduces the amount of dust and other airborne pollutants within the living spaces. Vasco systems provide air suction in wet rooms, such as bathrooms, toilets, washrooms, storage rooms and kitchens. At the same time, fresh air is directed into the dry rooms, i.e. the living and bedrooms. Vasco systems have a positive effect on air quality, but they also guarantee a hassle-free setup due to their ease of installation. They also put a high priority on noise comfort, which results in a calm and cosy interior atmosphere.
Is there much installation required with Vasco systems?
Because of their unique, smart, and distinctive installation, Vasco’s ventilation systems operate with swiftly. With its creative design, this solution can be installed in a variety of environments, such as insulation layers, suspended ceilings, and insulating fill layers. Vasco puts an emphasis on easy-to-use installation processes, guaranteeing that their ventilation systems can be successfully integrated into a variety of environments and serving as a practical option for a broad range of applications.
What maintenance is required for Vasco systems?
To maintain optimal performance, routine cleaning and air filter replacements are part of the D ventilation system maintenance. It is suggested that you hoover the air filters every three to four months to keep dust and debris from building up. One easy task that users can complete on their own is replacing the air filters, which should be done every 12 to 18 months.
Every eight years, in a longer maintenance cycle, the duct system must undergo a more thorough inspection. During this inspection, the ducts will be cleaned if needed and any possible problems will be looked for. To ensure a thorough and expert evaluation, it is highly advised that you enlist the assistance of a specialised company for this task. This routine maintenance and cleaning extends its lifespan.
What features do Lunos systems have?
The LUNOS decentralised ventilation supplied by Partel is based on a modular control system, developed for every individual space of the building, and it can be combined into three different ventilation systems: Exhaust air system, System with heat recovery, and Hybrid system. The correct system depends on the individual requirements of the project and the habits of occupants.
Our systems also provide considerable savings in heating costs – combined with low acquisition and operating costs and of course the quality and safety guaranteed by our reputation. The reduced levels of indoor air pollution are reason enough to invest in a smart ventilation system.
Is there much installation required with Lunos systems?
Lunos Decentralised ventilation system installations are intended to be simple, effective, and well-supported. The process is made even more accessible by Partel’s advice and assistance. Partel provides all-inclusive support, including direction and encouragement during the installation process. Additionally, Partel gives users access to authorised local installers, enabling them to communicate with experts who are knowledgeable about the system.
Additionally, installers can easily access technical support, which guarantees a precise and seamless installation procedure. Installers can benefit from step-by-step instructions to help them successfully implement the Lunos Decentralised ventilation systems. Installing Lunos systems is made easy by combining an intuitive design with Partel’s support and knowledge, which fosters confidence and successful integration for both users and installers.
What maintenance is required for Lunos systems?
The process of maintaining Lunos Decentralised ventilation systems is simple, and users can adhere to a suggested maintenance schedule based on the particular model that is being used. The LED filter indicator will light up about every three months to remind users when to change the filters in their Lunos system.
Every three months, the filters should be changed, cleaned in warm water, and squeezed dry according to the recommended filter maintenance schedule. Furthermore, it is recommended that the entire set of filters be changed every two years in order to maintain the ventilation system’s optimal performance and efficiency. Lunos Decentralised ventilation systems are more effective overall because of this routine maintenance, which also prolongs the life of the system and maintains air quality.
How do I choose between a centralised or a decentralised system?
A homeowner’s decision between a centralised and decentralised ventilation system is influenced by a number of factors. A centralised system may be appropriate for larger homes with a consistent floor plan and the ability to install ductwork, providing whole-house ventilation with possible long-term energy savings. Decentralised systems, which enable room-specific ventilation control and simpler retrofitting, are frequently more affordable for smaller homes or those with different layouts.
But, to make an informed choice, one should carefully consider a number of factors, including the available funds, the size of the home, flexibility, energy efficiency objectives, the infrastructure that is currently in place, maintenance preferences, noise concerns, installation time, zoning requirements, and individual comfort preferences. Consulting Partels experts can help you make the best decision possible by customising it to your home’s unique features and save requirements.
