The Range:
Meeting improved energy efficiency requirements for new homes combines efficient heating, insulation, better air tightness and a controlled ventilation strategy. An integrated, new generation, high efficiency wholehouse heat recovery system is by far the most efficient ventilation solution for new ‘tight’ buildings.
A 90% efficient wholehouse heat recovery unit for properties with a volume of between 600 and 900m3.
The Xpelair Xcell 300 and 400 are ideal for larger properties in order to meet the half an air change per hour requirement. As the extract points are in the ‘wet rooms’ – bathrooms, en-suites, cloakroom and kitchen, the air change rates in these individual rooms will be substantially higher.
At the heart of the unit is a 90% efficient heat recovery cell which transfers the heat from the outgoing exhaust airflow to the incoming fresh air whilst keeping the two flows separated. As the temperature of the outgoing air drops, it reaches dew point and gives up condensate. The warming process to the incoming air reduces it’s RH ensuring a fresh, condensation free indoor environment. The unit features LongLife DC motors designed for continuous operation and exceptionally low running costs. The unit design allows the outlet spigots to be set vertically or horizontally to suit site conditions. The unit is fitted with two cell pre-filters which are user accessible from the outside and without having to isolate the unit.
