Ventilation systems manufacturer EnviroVent has launched its new MEV 160 and MEV 300. These are versatile, compact, high performance mechanical ventilation systems ideal for houses, apartments and other communal residences, such as care homes and student accommodation. The MEV 160 and MEV 300 are designed to significantly enhance indoor air quality with multiple extract points to simultaneously draw moisture-laden air from the wet rooms, whilst minimising the migration of humidity to other rooms. They have airflow rates up to 74l/s for the MEV 160 and 111l/s for the MEV 300 and can achieve extremely low Specific Fan Powers down to 0.19 W/l/s , suitable for applications with a kitchen plus six additional wet rooms. These systems are extremely compact with a low profile of 16cm, making them perfect for areas where space is restricted. They can be wall, floor or ceiling mounted, horizontally or vertically with just four fixing points. The MEV 160 and 300 have also been designed to connect to either standard 125mm rigid ducting or 75mm/90mm Fast Track range of ducting as an option. EnviroVent’s innovative Fast Track Ducting range ensures rapid installation, up to twice the speed of traditional screw and glue and provides a sustainable airtight connection. Rory Percival, Head of R&D and Technical at EnviroVent, explains: “These are two extremely high performance MEV systems, which will prove to be very effective in improving indoor air quality. They have been designed to be very user-friendly and with ease and flexibility of installation in mind and feature six twist, fix and release entry points. They are also very compact and have minimal noise levels, making them ideal for domestic ventilation projects.” Weighing just 5 kg, they are simple and quick to install by one person, featuring an easy push button commissioning pad, enabling the installer to correctly set the required airflow rate quickly and effectively. The MEV 160 and 300 run continuously at a low level to ensure good indoor air quality. Intellitrac® humidity tracking comes as standard, which constantly monitors the humidity level, meaning no user intervention is required. Use of Intellitrac® means that as humidity rises and falls, the motor speed responds in direct correlation to control condensation quietly and efficiently. The MEV 160 and 300 can also be connected to the AirSens® range of Indoor Air Quality Sensors. These provide an easy-to-read colour coded display, showing the current air quality at any time. AirSens® is available in three different models to detect Carbon Dioxide, Volatile Organic Compounds and Relative Humidity. EnviroVent is a Harrogate-based manufacturer of residential ventilation equipment, employing over 230 people across two sites. The company has over 25 years’ experience in delivering sustainable products that are built to last the life cycle of a building.

Residents of the Treseifion estate in Holyhead who live in properties owned by the Isle of Anglesey County Council will be the first to benefit from the new ATMOS® PIV (Positive Input Ventilation) systems from EnviroVent. Isle of Anglesey County Council has committed to 60 EnviroVent units on this scheme, including 35 ATMOS® loft mounted units and 25 wall mounted ventilation units, as part of the refurbishment of a number of its properties. The ventilation installations will be completed along with other upgrades to the properties which includes external wall insulation and render, replacement roof coverings, new windows and doors plus external works such as replacement paths and fencing. Not only are the units utilised on this particular planned scheme they will also be installed on responsive maintenance works and integrated also into the Council’s void properties on behalf of Isle of Anglesey County Council’s Housing Maintenance Unit. Isle of Anglesey County Council have installed EnviroVent’s Filterless Infinity Fans and its PIV units for over 5 years now on a number of properties within their housing stock of approximately 3,800 dwellings that consist of traditionally and non traditionally built houses, bungalows and flats. Terry Barton, Capital Works Team Leader for the Isle of Anglesey Council, said: “We selected EnviroVent’s ventilation systems as they have proven to be very reliable and effective in combating condensation issues and mould growth in our residents homes. We were also impressed that EnviroVent offers a 10 year full parts and labour warranty on its loft-mounted ATMOS® units.” Stephen Winstanley, Sales Manager for EnviroVent, said: “This is an exciting period for EnviroVent and we are delighted to be working with Isle of Anglesey County Council to improve air quality in their homes. The ATMOS® range has only been introduced in the last few months but has a whole range of features that make it ideal for social housing providers and private landlords.” ATMOS® by EnviroVent is the first smart range of PIV solutions with five different units available designed to improve indoor air quality and eradicate the problem of condensation and mould growth in all types and sizes of homes. All the loft-mounted products within the ATMOS® range come with a 10 year warranty, which includes any necessary repair or replacements being installed completely free of charge. ATMOS® has great connectivity as it features the new myenvirovent app, which is the first app of its kind that gives the homeowner complete control of their ventilation system at the touch of a button. The app, accessed via most smartphones, can be used to adjust boost functionality, airflow, heater and monitor filter performance. Another option with the ATMOS® unit is the facility to link to the AirSens® range of air quality sensors. AirSens® is available in three different versions to enable the occupant to monitor Carbon Dioxide levels, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) or relative humidity. When AirSens® detects an increase in these levels, Atmos® reacts automatically by instantly supplying more fresh air into the property to maintain a healthy environment thus creating an improved level of air quality. For any social housing provider interested in ATMOS®, EnviroVent has its own specialist team who will survey, recommend and then install the product into an existing or new property. Residents of the Isle of Anglesey County Council properties which are upgraded to the ATMOS® ventilation units will receive energy efficiency benefits too as it enables the warmer air at ceiling level to be gently redistributed to heat the home. This can lead to a saving of around 10% of a home’s annual heating costs. EnviroVent offers a full range of ventilation solutions to the new build and refurbishment sectors. Its award-winning products are UK manufactured and can be installed by EnviroVent’s own dedicated team of nationwide installation engineers, who also provide after-sales support.
