Assisted Ventilation
BBA certified
Certified under certificate 96/3273, this offers assurance of a high quality performance and
compliance with relevant building regulations.
24 hour ventilation
Provides 24-hour condensation control with continuous gentle extraction. This ensures that
the dwelling will be continuously ventilated preventing condensation and giving a high level
of indoor air quality.
Range of controls strategies
The ventilation rate within the Passivent AV system is controlled by extract grilles located in
wet rooms. A range of controls are available to suit the individual need of each project.
Controls options include humidity control, motion sensing, timed boosts, and manual
occupant controlled boosts.
SAP Appendix Q eligible
Being SAP Appendix Q eligible, the Passivent AV system has been shown to reduce energy
consumption compared to default SAP systems. By using the data from the Appendix Q
database, the Passivent AV system can be used to improve SAP ratings compared with
standard non-Appendix Q systems.
Low energy DC fan
The A151DC fan which forms the central part of the Passivent AV system uses a DC motor
which minimises electrical consumption, contributing towards a low energy whole house
ventilation solution.
Reduces background ventilation requirement when compared
with standard extract fans
With the BBA certified Passivent AV system the requirement for background ventilation is
one vent per room. This is far less than standard intermittent extract fans which require
many more to comply with building regulations.
Only one faηade penetration per fan system
As there is only one penetration per fan system, this can greatly reduce noise penetrating
the building envelope.
1 fan can serve multiple dwellings
This is ideal for multi-occupancy dwellings such as care homes, student accommodation and
apartment blocks. This reduces energy consumption, running costs, and noise, when
compared to systems which require fans in each dwelling.
Ideal for apartment blocks, care homes & student accommodation
This is due to the fact that one fan can be shared across dwellings. This minimises costs and
improves quality of life for occupants.
