Easy cleaning The Cyclone is designed to deal with condensation problems in kitchens and bathrooms. It controls the humidity level immediately as it begins to rise at source. Intelligent vapour tracking control Incorporated within the Cyclone is the intelligent vapour tracking control, which constantly monitors the humidity level. As humidity rises and falls, the motor speed rises and falls in direct correlation. This controls condensation quietly and efficiently, eliminating the problem of noisy extract fans and reducing the periods of time when the fan operates on maximum speed, saving energy. The Cyclone has been designed for ease of cleaning and servicing in mind. That is why it can be carried out safely and hassle-free by the resident. There is a small magnet which deactivates the fan as soon as the front grille is removed. The grille and impeller can then be cleaned in a sink or dishwasher and the fan scroll can be wiped clean with a cloth quickly and easily. Once the impeller is inserted again and the front grille replaced, the fan will continue to run as normal. Antimicrobial protection To ensure clean, safe and hygienic ventilation, the Cyclone has been manufactured with patented antimicrobial silver ion protection to inhibit the growth of bacteria, microbes and mould on the surface of the fan by up to 99.99%. Annual running costs of £1.97 for bathroom and £4.05 for kitchen with an electricity cost of £0.15 per unit (kWh), based on constant running with 2 hours boost per day. Leaders in the Manufacture of Innovative and Sustainable Ventilation What is condensation and how do you prevent it? Condensation is arguably the most common form of dampness and can eventually lead to the growth of black mould. It forms on internal surfaces when the temperature drops sufficiently below the temperature of moist air inside the property. You should watch out for it because if left to develop, condensation can lead to an unsightly, musty property. More importantly, it can also aggravate or trigger health problems such as asthma and wider complaints. How do you spot it? Streaming windows and walls Damp areas can appear on walls, especially behind furniture and in corners Wallpaper can start to peel Blackened window frames Mould growth, usually black mould, starts to appear Soft furnishings and fabrics become prone to mould and mildew Tips on how to reduce it... Try to keep the inside temperature reasonably constant for as much of the time as possible Avoid drying clothes indoors. If you have no choice, place the clothes rack beside an open window in a room with the door shut EnviroVent Ltd EnviroVent House Hornbeam Business Park Harrogate HG2 8PA Do not dry clothes over any radiators 0845 27 27 807 enquiries@envirovent.com homeventilation.co.uk Keep furniture away from walls Ensure any tumble drier is properly vented or the condensate regularly emptied Do not supplement your heating with paraffin/Calor gas type heating Do not disable any extraction units people in a property ...create a whopping 16 pints of moisture per day ...that amounts to a massive 112 pints of moisture per week Day to day activities such as cooking, washing, bathing, ironing and even breathing all add to the problem. In a property of 4 people each will contribute approximately 4 pints of moisture per day, adding up to well over 100 pints per week! In the past there would be a natural escape for this hot, damp and poor quality air through window frames, doors, uncarpeted floorboards and so forth. However, building features designed to cut down heat loss such as cavity wall insulation, double-glazing and draught proofing, inhibit ‘natural ventilation’. Instead, stale, humid air is trapped, commonly causing streaming windows, which will inevitably lead to musty smells, dampness and ultimately mould growth. Hello! I am Mr Venty. I solve condensation and mould problems for good. Mould Spores The three basic ingredients to start a colony of mould are: Organic material A fungal spore Water Mould spores are known allergens. Their microscopic spores are often powdery and become airborne at the slightest disturbance. These microscopic spores are then inhaled by humans and have been attributed (along with the dust mite) to being a trigger for asthma, dust allergies and hay fever. During growth, fungal colonies can produce gases known as ‘volites’. These are musty mildew-like odours, that you may associate with damp basements. Exposure to these gases have been associated with a number of symptoms from headaches to nausea and fatigue. The vast majority of products used to build and furnish homes are made from organic materials. Fungal spores are microscopic and are present in any indoor or outdoor environment; they can easily enter any dwelling undetected. The main source of water for mould is from the air around it, so if relative humidity is high the mould will thrive. Therefore, to reduce the risk of mould growth in a property you must reduce the relative humidity. The solution is correct ventilation... EnviroVent has a solution for every kind of home, whether it be apartment, flat, bungalow or house. With our wide range of eco-friendly and innovative ventilation systems, manufactured here in the UK, you can be assured that not only will your indoor air quality be dramatically improved, but so will your health and your heating bills. The EnviroVent Mr Venty units are sophisticated whole home ventilation and condensation control units. By drawing in fresh, filtered and clean air from outside, the units gently ventilate the home from a central position on a landing in a house or the central hallway in a flat or bungalow. Moisture laden air is diluted, displaced and replaced to maintain humidity levels at around 55%. This significantly reduces or eliminates surface condensation, the main cause for mould growth. With lower humidity levels, dust mite populations are also substantially reduced to provide a significant improvement in the health of asthma sufferers and general indoor air quality. There are also Mr Venty condensation-control units available for flats and apartments. Annual running costs are £4.35 based on medium setting and heater DISABLED with electricity cost of £0.15 per unit (kWh). From installation, the unit gently ventilates the home with fresh air. Air is pushed back down into the house and redistributed. Humidity is diluted to leave a healthy, fresh and clean environment to live in. The unit transforms a stagnant, stale atmosphere into a fresher, healthier and condensation free environment. Mr Venty ECO2 Loft Mr Venty ECO2 Twin Mr Venty ECO2 Wall
