A Whole New Experience
The highly sculpted interior surfaces, designed using the latest CFD techniques, ensure airflows are maximised through the unit, minimising noise and energy use. This feature alone provides an experience, that will delight homeowners, providing the most discrete and highly efficient ventilation available.

Air Quality and Health
The MVHR filter options offer numerous benefits, including improved indoor air quality by removing allergens and particulate matter. They maintain the system's energy efficiency, reduce heating and cooling costs, and enhance the overall longevity of the system. Additionally, they capture bacteria, viruses and VOCs, promoting a healthier living environment. Regular filter maintenance extends the system's lifespan and ensures uninterrupted operation.

Whatever the outside environment, the system can help improve the indoor air quality by filtering out impurities, with ISO 60% Coarse (G4) supplied as standard, which can filter out sand, fine hair and particles larger than 10μm. Additional filtration can be achieved with a selection of optional filters, such as ISO ePM10 (M5), which can filter pollen, stone dust and particles smaller or equal to 10μm and ISO ePM2.5 (F7), which can filter out mould spores, bacteria and particles smaller or equal to 2.5μm.

The various sensor options allow for flexible installation in individual rooms, supporting effective management of the air in the home. For example, a CO2 sensor located within a habitable room helps ensure a healthy and safe working environment. CO2 levels managed at less than 1000ppm help promote cognitive function. A humidity sensor located in the bathroom detects high levels of moisture can support good indoor air quality.

Low Noise Levels
The Lo-Carbon Sentinel Econiq is one of the quietest systems on the market, with a noise level as low as 15.5 dB(A). The range is designed with an integral acoustic enclosure, made of steel, foam and expanded polypropylene (EPP), minimising breakout noise. The highly efficient motors are mounted on anti-vibration mounts to ensure minimal vibration transmission.

Demand Control Ventilation
The Vent-Axia Connect smartphone application allows a multitude of functions to be adjusted from the comfort of the sofa, available on iOS and Android.

With smartphone-compatible controls, the homeowner is in full control of their ventilation all year round. They have the flexibility to increase the ventilation rate during hot periods in the summer or reducing the speed to minimise running costs while away.

The Sentinel control logic built within the MVHR ensures the system operates optimally with automated functions such as frost protection and summer bypass, providing comfort in the home.

Integral Humidity Sensor
The integral humidity sensor increases speed in proportion to relative humidity levels, saving energy and reducing noise. The sensor also reacts to small but rapid increases in humidity, even if the normal trigger threshold is not reached. This unique feature ensures adequate ventilation, even for the smallest wet room. The nighttime relative humidity setback feature suppresses nuisance tripping as humidity gradually increases with falling temperatures.

Airtight Buildings
Low-energy buildings typically have very low leakage rates (below 3m3/(h.m2) at 50Pa). This reduces the effectiveness of the standard frost protection strategy which imbalances the airflows.

Spigot Options (M & L only)
The inclusion of horizontal spigots allows for flexible installation in tight spaces. It is possible to use both vertical and horizontal connections.
