Ventilation leader Vent-Axia has supplied over 60 of its Lo-Carbon Multivent MVDC-MSH units to provide effective ventilation at a new nine-storey student accommodation scheme in Manchester.
Church Inn, on Higher Cambridge Street, has 62 studio apartments with a Vent-Axia ventilation unit installed in each flat. Energy efficient and quiet, the Multivent MEV unit was the ideal solution for the BREEAM VG scheme, with low energy and noise levels very important in achieving this credit. The accommodation also meets Manchester City Council’s ambition to achieve a zero-carbon target for Manchester by establishing student accommodation close to educational establishments, reducing the need for travel and minimising emissions.
Vent-Axia’s Multivent MVDC-MSH unit features three fully variable speeds; normal, boost and purge, and can extract up to 118l/s. The digital display allows installers to accurately set airflow, ensuring exactly the right ventilation rate, while accurate speed control helps minimise noise and energy consumption, which made the Multivent MVDC-MSH ideal for the Church Inn project. It also features a built-in humidity sensor so that the unit boosts when humidity reaches a certain threshold, combatting excess moisture and thus helping provide good indoor air quality.
The Multivent MVDC-MSH is part of the award-winning Multivent MEV family, a new range of mechanical extract ventilation (MEV) and decentralised MEV (dMEV) from Vent-Axia. With market-leading energy efficiency, the Multivent MEV family provides a reliable, highly efficient, quiet and easy to operate ventilation system that’s key to unlocking a healthier, greener future. Additional benefits include increased ventilation rates, compact design, easy installation, as well as simple and accurate commissioning. With a common digital control platform throughout the range and smart accessories for use in the home, the MEV and dMEV range is a breeze to install, commission and control. The wealth of control and switching options across the range provides a solution for any new build scenario.
With a 7-year warranty on all Multivent MEV family products, the range offers a high efficiency, low profile solution for continuous mechanical extract ventilation. The range combines market-leading efficiency recognised on SAP PCDB combined with a specific fan power as low as 0.14w/l/s whilst still achieving ultra-low noise levels.
