Natural Ventilation

High Capacity - Our natural ventilation terminals are perfect for both natural, passive and solar powered options, with all four sides possessing a guaranteed 50% free area allowing a more efficient operation. High Performance - With the addition of internal vertical channels and integrated water defence, our standard terminals can be converted into high performance Class A rain protection (over 99% effective). Internal & Trunk Housed inside the terminal is a full height divider which keeps fresh and stale air separate. Both the terminal base and ductwork below are lined using a Class O type 12.5mmTHK acoustic foam. The foam offers an ideal acoustic characteristics and the necessary fire performance. Additional acoustic layers can be applied to conform to any design criteria required. The roof lid is also acoustically lined to prevent unwanted noise transfer from heavy rain droplets, which can be amplified into the occupied space below. This method also avoids condensation forming on the underside of the roof with cold air entering the terminal and hot stale air rising from below.

uPVC volume control dampers

Ultra high shut off

In independent tests, large format uPVC volume control dampers yielded leakage results normally only achieved by dedicated shut off dampers. The VCD sent for testing had a nominal size of 1000mm x 806mm, the large size tantamount to our confidence in the damper. With even 10Pa rarely being exceeded in natural ventilation situations, it is clear how uPVC volume control dampers can enhance the efficiency of your new natural ventilation system.

No cold bridge Close a steel or aluminium volume control damper, and you will go on losing heat, not through airflow but conduction of heat from one side to the other. HVC large format uPVC volume control dampers have a theoretical U value of 0.973W/m2K when closed, atleast 40 times better than a steel damper and 250 times better than an aluminium unit. Of course this can help to cut heating bills, and reduces the carbon footprint of any building using them.

NATURAL
Ventilation

Airtherm Engineering Limited supply a wide range of natural ventilation and lighting systems that can be designed and installed to suit virtually any application.
We provide for the commercial, educational, industrial and private sectors and our products are increasingly popular in schools, hospitals, offices and industrial buildings. Natural Ventilation and Lighting systems make use of nature's own power source to provide interior spaces with a fresh air supply or natural daylight illumination or both. Buildings utilising natural ventilation or lighting systems, by their very nature, experience a significant reduction in traditional energy running costs. The Airtherm W-Vent is a natural ventilation system operating on established aerodynamic principles. As air flows around the terminal itself, positive and negative pressure areas are generated. On the positive side air enters the louvres of the terminal and is directed down through the internal vanes into the room below. The negative pressure on the leeward side of the terminal, induces air to leave the louvres, and stale air from the room below rises and is expelled from the terminal. This process is aided by stack effect, i.e. as cool air enters the windward side of the unit it descends into the room below, and the warm stale air rises in the ducts facing the leeward side providing a naturally fresh environment.

The features and advantages of such a system include

A fresh air supply for workers proven to increase productivity & reduce staff sickness. Naturally ventilated - reduces your energy costs and carbon footprint without the need for mechanical ventilation. Night time purge of stale air creating a fresh working environment for staff the following morning. Better control of building temperature and CO levels. Free cooling.

Intelligent Ventilation Ventilation
Installation
Units can be installed on almost every roof including flat, pitched and even on the roof apex where appropriate. The roof fabric of commercial applications has bearing on the openings and roof plates that are required to install the systems competently. We offer a roof plate solution for all situations, including self mount flashings and curb mount flashings with suitable upstands. The options for each project will be discussed at the design stage in detail, including the necessary openings that are required to suit our systems. The ductwork for the units can pass through any floor level to transfer air within the building. The units are capable of being linked to the buildings BMS to ensure dampers are fully closed in the event of a fire. W-Vent units can be controlled via master control panels, room temperature sensors and CO sensors. We can also offer many bespoke natural ventilation solutions to clients. Our highly skilled work force adapt at all types of light to medium metal fabrication including stainless steel, aluminum and mild steel. GRP moulded products are also available, most suited to circular formation. The most common range starts from 500mm to 1200mm and can be combined with a natural lighting system formally known as the L-Vent . The L-Vent (Light & Vent) system uses both the wind and sun, and offers a ZERO carbon footprint which has no impact on the environment. Our installation engineers are competent in their field and carry all necessary site certification with CSCS cards, IPATH, PASMA and scaffold towers. Our engineers strive towards excellence in each and every project they undertake.

A Breath of Fresh Air

Manufacture
All units are manufactured to BS EN ISO 9001 and are fully welded and constructed using corrosion resistant aluminium or stainless steel and fitted with internal acoustic material which is normally sized to meet all related noise criteria of each individual application. Adjustable sealed dampers and transfer grilles are manufactured from anodised aluminium or perforated stainless steel panels. The units may be powder coated to your clients specifications in any standard RAL or BS colour of your choice. Our terminals are available either in square, rectangular or circular shapes and can be designed and manufactured to complement the architectural aesthetics of the building. We also offer a manually operated system called Teleflex where the dampers can be opened and closed by use of a rotating lever operated by the room occupants when required. Natural ventilation and lighting systems, by their very nature, produce a significant reduction in traditional energy running costs and can improve staff productivity and reduce sickness by the removal of stale air from the working environment.

Wind
Ventilation

The W-Vent (natural ventilation) system offers a cool, fresh, costeffective alternative solution to traditional air conditioning, it is regulated by our advanced intelligent control panel, all day every day"
Cost Savings
The system is powered primarily by aerodynamic forces and so the only power required is to run the low voltage controller unit. This offers substantial costs savings compared to traditional mechanical ventilation systems that can potentially run into tens of thousands of pounds each year.

Health Benefits
By its very nature, the W-Vent (wind ventilator), S-Vent, (solar-ventilator) P-Vent (passive ventilator) L-Vent (combined wind & light ventilator) and our X-Vent (cross wall ventilation) systems all offer a natural solution to health problems commonly associated with mechanical air conditioning units. Rather than re-circulating stale air (and possibly germs), the natural ventilation system is continually removing stale air and replacing it with a fresh supply. The system takes air from the roof level eliminating a proportion of pollution, including hazardous carbon monoxide from roadside traffic that is a common issue with low level ventilation methods.

Suitable Applications
Our Natural Ventilation products are suitable for many applications including schools, offices and hospitals. They are also used in private, local authority and commercial premises including gymnasiums, colleges, universities, reception areas, store rooms, changing rooms, libraries, meeting halls and are also suitable for specialist applications. They provide an ideal solution for delivering a 'fresh' air supply to areas where conventional room ventilation is difficult due to critical noise issues.

The Ideal Solution

Our Natural Ventilation systems offer architects and consulting engineers not only a natural and environmentally-friendly solution but an acoustically efficient, economical and aesthetic answer to ventilation needs.

Terminal Design
Our external terminals can be designed in keeping with the architectural design of the building or can be manufactured to be of a contrasting appearance, adding and harnessing a feature aspect to the buildings and its surroundings. Louvres are designed to ensure the maximum available free area of the unit is utilised, whilst maintaining weather defensive integrity at all times.

Solar
Ventilation

"The S-Vent (solar-powered natural ventilation) system offers

additional fresh air requirements during those hot summer months, and provides a better comfort to the every day working environment
How It Works
The S-Vent system benefits of a passive stack and an active stack system, similar to our W-Vent range, but with the bonus of a free power source. Our S-Vent terminal delivers fresh air and discharges unwanted stale air (CO) from internal spaces, effectively eliminating the need for traditional methods. The system incorporates a solar powered boost-fan which provides additional 200l/s, 400l/s or 700l/s of fresh air within the compartment below. The photovoltaic panel collects daylight and convert this to electricity that is regulated via the charge controller which charges the battery pack. The battery is charged whenever there is enough available daylight to do so and even generates power on a dull day. The S-Vent range have been designed to supply fresh air 24 hours a day. The low powered fans are set as standard to simply switch on/off at maximum dampers or as an optional feature they can be speed controlled variably in conjunction with the damper positions.

Standard Components

12v or 24v DC Power Supply. 40w or 60w solar cell. DC carbon fibre battery Pack. Power management module. Low powered DC fan unit - 200L/s, 400L/s and 700L/s iVent control systems operate with peripheral (wind, rain,

CHIMNEYS & FLUES

Flue Sizes
Flue sizes range from 100mm to 1200mm diameter depending on the product type and application. They are generally offered with 25mm insulation as standard. Where increased temperatures are expected, normally from chp and generators, the annulus can be increased to 50mm, 75mm, 100mm or 150mm thick by using mineral wool. This can be applied with a variation of different thicknesses and density, which in turn reduces the loss of heat.

Design, Manufacture & Testing

Every flue, chimney or exhaust system we install has been calculated using the latest computer aided software available. All of our products are designed and manufactured to meet the requirements of the specific fuel involved - whether it be gas, oil, wood or pellet feed. For us, good practise is paramount. This thorough procedure is necessary to ascertain reliable performance for total efficiency and more importantly to fully comply with all relevant government legislation. System calculations are quickly available by entering the appliance detail and the intended flue configuration into our iCalc sizing system. Whether its an individual or combined system, a detailed report is provided indicating exhaust flow rates, chimney size and available pressure, allowing the correct selection for each and every application. The system must be designed to convey the products combustion to atmosphere safely and provide a stable operating pressure at the appliance at all times. With the demand for modern boiler plants, a number of factors must be considered to achieve the optimum efficiency for the equipment and surrounding area.

FLUE DILUTION

Good Practise: There are two methods that can be considered when designing the dilution system:
Air is directly taken from the outside. Fresh air is taken from within the plant area. Generally, the favoured option is to take the air direct from the outside via a louvre situated on the external face of the building or above roof level.

Further Considerations are:

The inlet and discharge openings shall be, as far as possible, apart and located on the same building face to prevent external wind conditions affecting the overall operation and performance of the dilution system. Inter-connection section from the boiler to the main dilution header should be fitted with a manual volume control damper and, if deemed necessary by the appliance manufacture, allow a draft stabiliser device which will ensure a safe stable operation. Incorporate sufficient noise control. Suitable ductwork must be manufactured from stainless steel, with a requirement for a water-tight system when serving high efficiency condensing boilers. Where a condensing application is considered it is normal for pluming to take effect, however, a reduced external temperature will accelerate the process, nevertheless, this may lead to complaints if the discharge point is not positioned correctly.

Airtherm can offer a fan dilution system to suit many appliances, from modern high efficiency condensing to gas blown and atmospheric boilers, however, the principal of diluting the products of combustion is to reduce the CO content at the discharge to below 1%, CO 50ppm & NOx 5ppm (BS6644 / IGEUP/10) in line with current legislation.
There are many design considerations that must be achieved, for instance, the correct sizing of the fan unit, dilution header, inlet and discharge plenum boxes, the location to adjacent buildings, openable windows, fresh air vent pipes and final discharge height. These can be found from the Clean Air Act memorandum, IGEUP/10 or BS6644, along with other certain provisions with respect to the final discharge height which is calculated based on the total kw input load of the plant.

The dilution fan must incorporate a proving device normally a pressure switch, which interlocks with the boiler control.
We offer a design, supply and installation service for flue dilution systems, and can offer a tailored-made package to site conditions and customer requirements.

The Vertical Balance FlueVent System

The FlueVent balanced terminal works by the process of heat & aerodynamic principles. It is designed to allow the release of products of combustion through a twin wall flue system housed within the roof-mounted terminal, whilst simultaneously drawing in fresh air through high performance louvres to ventilate the room below. By design, the unit is able to provide high or low level ventilation requirements in accordance with BS 6644 & the IGE. All terminals are constructed using fully-welded 3mm THK aluminium outer casing incorporating air ducts sized in accordance with BS 6644 and IGE requirements. The standard internal twin wall flue system has a 316 grade stainless steel fully-welded inner liner, insulated with 50mm of high density insulation and a 304 grade stainless steel outer casing. Terminals are available in a variety of sizes and shapes (square, circular, rectangular, mitred or turret models with the option of fire retardant GRP) and can be powder coated to any BS/RAL colour. External louvres come complete with a low resistance bird mesh guard. Aesthetically pleasing, the FlueVent terminal provides architects and consulting engineers with an effective and economical solution where conventional ventilation requirements prove difficult to achieve. Designs can be produced to match any building structure and a threedimensional computer generated likeness can be provided for approval, prior to manufacture. We are also able to supply special designs to meet with architectural requirements. The internal flue section of the FlueVent terminates with a connection to receive one of our twin wall insulated flue products and is sized to match the appliances used. The terminal also incorporates removable outer skirts at it's base to allow access to the roof plate. An extended internal compartment is available complete with internal flue and air ducts from the plant room ceiling to the underside of the terminal. All of our FlueVent systems are easy to install. The terminal is designed to mount on either a builders curb or our factory made upstand.

Technical Guidance to the CE MARK

The CE MARK is the symbol obligatory since April 2005 t hat certifies that a stainless steel chimney is in accordance with the EN 1856-1. This standard specifies the performance requirements for rigid single and multi-wall system chimney products with metallic liners (chimney sections, chimneys fittings and terminals, including supports) used to convey the products of combustion from appliances to the outside atmosphere. It also specifies the requirements for marking, manufacturer's instructions, product information and evaluation of conformity of the product to the standard. The EN 1856-1 does not apply to self-standing chimneys. CE Marking of stainless steel chimneys is according to the evaluation system 2+. Following this system, the manufacturer is obliged to realize the complete initial test of the chimney in a laboratory, and moreover, a Certified Body will: * annually check that the manufactured product has the same quality as the tested one * perform the quality control of the production process to ensure that it will satisfy the CE requirements, specified in the FPC (Factory Production Control).

On December 2005, the EN 1856-2 will also be obligatory: this standard is applicable to single wall chimneys, rigid or flexible, and rigid connection elements used to reline an existing chimney. In the EN 1856-2, the flexible ducts are only used for renovation or adaptation The CE MARK of the stainless steel chimney can only be granted by a Certified Body.of e The CE Mark enables the product to circulate freely in the European market, but each country could have its own Installation Rules.

SOLAR PV
(PHOTOVOLTAIC)
Solar power is a clean, renewable and abundant power source with numerous benefits as demonstrated by the increasing popularity of Solar PV panels. Growing concern about rising energy prices, the environment and the need to reduce energy consumption together with relatively low installation costs, minimal maintenance and the opportunity to earn an extra income via the Governments Feed in Tariff scheme (guaranteed for 25 years from April 2010) have meant that using solar power as an energy source for your home or business has become a very attractive solution. We install PV solutions for both domestic and commercial applications and we only use Photovoltaic (PV) panels that are guaranteed to work efficiently and effectively for decades to come. All of our solar PV panels are MCS accredited and are supplied with a 5 year or 10 year manufactures warranty, 10 year 90% Power-Max Performance Guarantee and a 25 year 80% Power-Max Performance Guarantee as standard.

Feed In Tariff (FiT)Scheme From April 2010, businesses or individuals installing photovoltaic panels will be paid via the governments Feed In Tariff scheme (FiT) for the electricity they generate for their own use and for any surplus electricity fed back into the grid.

FiT rates differ according to the size of the system installed. The governments recent fast track Feed-in Tariff review stipulate an upper limit of a 50kw size installation; significantly more than the average UK home can accommodate

Feed-in-tariff is aimed at encouraging homeowners and businesses to install PV systems and has proved very successful in other European countries. Feedin-tariff not only provides an income for system owners but these payments reduce payback times and creates the opportunity to profit from the system long term. In the UK, Feed-in-tariff payments are paid to owners direct from their electricity supplier. There are two components to the payment the generation tariff (paid on the total electricity generated) and the export tariff (paid on the amount of exported or unused electricity that is relayed to the national grid).

Whole House Solution

Why not consider a 'whole house solution' with the addition of a Heat Pump? Our Heat Pump and Solar PV solutions can be used to create a whole house solution - reducing the need for conventional energy sources like mains gas and electricity

Solar pv installations reduce energy consumption, have low installation cost, require little maintenance and provide an additional income via FIT 0844 809 2509 | airtherm.co.uk | info@airtherm.co.uk
