Using the Vent-Axia LoWatt range can reduce electrical consumption, thus reducing the overall carbon footprint.
When using heat recovery ventilation, the heating system requirement is reduced thus potentially saving another 500kg of carbon per annum.

An easily accessible heat recovery cube protected by
two removable EU3 filters. Two Lo-Carbon Energy Saving EC DC
fans ensure long life (typically over double the life of AC motors)
and lowest possible energy use. Fully insulated construction with
built in condensation drain. Fitted with 150mm spigots.
Specifically designed for new build homes and light commercial/multiple residential properties with a high level of insulation.
Lo-Carbon Sentinel Kinetic meets the latest requirements of the Building Regulations Document F 2010 for wholehouse system ventilation: System 4. Continuous mechanical supply and extract with heat recovery.
Product Specification
The Lo-Carbon Sentinel Kinetic Plus has 2 fully adjustable speeds and a purge setting – maximum. On the front of the unit is a digital controller that can be used to pre-set the speeds to any required air-flow within the performance range.
The Sentinel Kinetic Plus models can be mounted vertically in a roof space or on a suitable wall. When mounted in an unheated area ducting should be insulated. Ducting can be attached to the unit horizonally, vertically or both.
Left or right hand installation. The unit is supplied with duct spigots to outside on the right hand side. These can be reversed onsite by simply removing the control panel, rotating the unit 180 degrees and re-attaching the control panel.
Horizontal and vertical spigots: The combination of spigot options allows installation in confined locations. If vertical and horizontal connection is required on the same outlet/inlet, additional spigots can be supplied.
Condensate drain can be taken out through the back, bottom or front of the unit. Using the fittings supplied, the final condensate connection is made outside the unit and can be completed after installation.
