Lo Carbon Sentinel Kinetic Plus

A wholehouse heat recovery system with 92% energy efficiency. An easily accessible heat recovery cube protected by two removeble 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.

Lo-Carbon Sentinel Kinetic meets the latest requirements of the Building Regulations Ducument F 2006 for wholehouse system ventilation.

The Lo-Carbon Sentinel Kinetic models have 3 adjustable speeds nominally. On the front of the unit is a digital controller that can be used to reset the speeds to any required performance, up to 400m3/hr. Offering 'Close Control' to prevent over ventilating.

In addition the operating temperature settings can be pre-programmed for automatic operation of the summer bypass.

Options

The integral humidity sensor increases fan 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 wetroom.

Night time relative humidity setback feature supresses nuisance tripping as dwelling humidity gradually increases with falling temperature. Acoustically lined - low noise levels from only 20dB(A) @3m.

Airflow Options

Normal; Airflow based on system pressure. Airflow reduces as system pressure increases. Constant Volume; Maintains pre-set Airflow irrespective of system pressure. Constant Pressure; Maintains system pressure by adjusting airflow when constant pressure dampers open or close.

How we install our systems

 

1st FIX
This includes supply and fitting of all ductwork and Heat Recovery Unit. A condensation drain off pipe from the unit to the atmosphere is also installed.

2nd FIX
This occurs when your house has been plastered (but not painted). We fix a short section of duct complete with a 15mm flange between the duct and the ceiling. This will ensure that your system will be airtight at this point. External louvers can now be fitted.

3RD FIX
When all ceiling are painted the ceilings valves can be fitted. The controls can now be fitted and the entire system is commissioned. The installation is then complete.

NOTE
All ductwork used in our system are of rigid duct (light wall PVC). All are insulated in open areas i.e. attics and crawl spaces.
