Vent-Axia, the brand leader in low carbon ventilation solutions, has introduced a brand new online Heating and Ventilation Design Service. The new tool will ensure contractors specify and install the right ventilation equipment or heating loads, for one-off residential properties, on each and every job.
“In the light of recent changes to the Building Regulations, the variables involved in specifying ventilation and heating along with the wide range of potential solutions on the market, system design and specification is not necessarily a straightforward task” says Vent-Axia’s Marketing Director, Lee Nurse. “Accuracy in design and specification will also make one-off jobs much more profitable for contractors. Our new on-line Design Service takes the pressure off, saves time and will help contractors make the correct and efficient ventilation choice for every project which will keep customers happy”.
Contractors simply need to fill in the details to outline the project requirements at www.vent-axia.com/designsolutions. They can then submit these plans online. In return, Vent-Axia will provide a comprehensive ventilation design complete with an accurate quotation. The design will include the total heat loss for the property, the heat requirements in each room and a list of suitable Vent-Axia products.
Recent changes in the Building Regulations Part L and Part F and further planned alterations in 2013 and 2016 is dramatically improving energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions on new building projects. Vent-Axia’s new product development programme is directed towards fulfilling this demand with low carbon technologies and solutions, including unfamiliar technologies, such as, heat recovery ventilation, heat pumps and electric heating. The Heating and Ventilation Design Service can be used as a simple, cost-effective method for producing fully priced designs incorporating these solutions.
For ventilation applications, each design will select a unit based on using the most energy efficient products to meet Part F, ducting layouts and terminations and a full bill for material. For heating applications, the designs will provide the heat requirements for each room and the total heat loss of the property. A copy of the full SAP report will be needed for heating design requests.
