Ventilation solutions for apartment blocks
Renovation of ventilation in connection with a pipe renovation in an apartment block
When it is time for a pipe renovation, the bathroom or kitchen are often renovated at the same time to improve the comfort of living. However, the ventilation is often forgotten in this context. If the original ventilation system is left in place, it will not meet the modern requirements for comfortable living and energy-efficiency.
Apartment-specific ventilation for new apartment block
In a building equipped with apartment-specific ventilation units, the ventilation does not change when outdoor temperatures vary, which can happen with centralised ventilation systems covering an entire house or the apartments served by the same staircase. An apartment-specific ventilation system is basically simple, easy to adjust and quick to take in use. Moreover, the housing company can achieve considerable savings in heating energy and electricity consumption by using apartment-specific and needs-based ventilation adjustments.
Responsibilities and distribution of work related to ventilation
The housing company is responsible for cleaning and replacing the apartment-specific ventilation filters, unless otherwise is specified in the articles of association of the housing company. The shareholder is responsible for cleaning the valves inside the apartment whilst the housing company is responsible for cleaning the valves outside the apartment. Regular cleaning and replacing of the ventilation unit filters is essential for the good quality of the indoor air and for the smooth operation of the ventilation system.
Loimaan Helmi has fresh indoor air
The sizes of the apartments in Loimaan Helmi vary between 34.0 m2 and 70.5 m2. The ventilation of the modern apartments is implemented by means of Vallox 096 MV units that are equipped with top class MyVallox technology. The maximum airflows of the units make them suited to apartments that are up to 130 m2 in size. Thanks to the efficiency of the ventilation units, the units of Loimaan Helmi do not need to be used at their maximum power. The residents will notice this by their silent operation.
