Vent Axia Lo-carbon Sentinel Multivent Plus SMV-PLUS H MEV Unit (407849)

Sentinel Multivent continuous mechanical extract ventilation, MEV is designed for the simultaneous ventilation of separate areas in the home or as a multipoint extraction system for a wide range of commercial applications. The units can be installed at any angle. Where the ambient air has a high humidity content condensate drains are provided.

In support of Sentinel Multivent, Vent-Axia offers:
• Practical advice on product selection and installation
• Guidance on solutions to meet legislation requirements
• Project management and site deliveries
• After sales support and maintenance information

The need to improve efficiency
Sentinel Multivent has been designed to meet the exacting demands of developers, installers and users offering advanced control options and easier installation and commissioning.
• Demand Control - enables precise ventilation rate, is set in 1% increments based on property size
• Integral LCD display allows the installer to select appropriate low, normal and boost speeds to meet demand
• Manual and automatic control options
• Integral adjustable overrun timer and delay on timer
• Plug-n-Play automatic sensor detection
• Switched live and SELV connections
• Dry Out setting – Option set at installation, Sentinel Multivent will run on boost for 1 week to assist in removing moisture
• Optional Wireless Control – up to 4 controllers on any one system
• Energy efficient EC/DC motors - 1/3 less energy lost to heat than a conventional AC motor
• Low Specific Fan Power (SFP) making it one of the most efficient products on the market

Legislation
• Meets Building Regulations Approved Document F (System 3)
• Recognised in SAP PCDB up to kitchen + 6 wet rooms
• Meets carbon footprint reduction targets
• Lowest SFP figures of any demand control MEV system

The need for better health
Removal of pollutants such as moisture, carbon dioxide and external fumes are all important factors in maintaining indoor air quality, helping to create a healthier living environment.
• The integral humidity sensor (Sentinel Multivent H) 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 wet room
• Night time relative humidity increment setback feature suppresses nuisance tripping as humidity gradually increases with falling temperature
• Acoustically lined - low noise levels only 18.1 dB(A) @ 3m

SAP PCDB
In order to make the right choice, developers and contractors should refer to Building Regulations ADL1a, SAP 2012 and SAP PCDB. SAP PCDB was launched in June 2006 to reward innovative ventilation manufacturers by testing and listing energy-efficient products that assist in helping developers meet their Target Emission Rates (TER). SAP is the underpinning methodology behind the Energy Performance Certificates and is used to demonstrate compliance with Building Regulations for Dwellings - Approved Document L (England and Wales), Section 6 (Scotland) and Approved Document F (Northern Ireland). SAP PCDB specifically relates to whole-house ventilation systems and lists a number of Vent-Axia Mechanical Ventilation solutions which offer an improved SAP rating over and above the default for these product types.

Your Carbon Footprint
The Carbon Footprint is a measure of the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted through the burning of fossil fuels. From a residential and commercial building perspective, it is the amount of carbon generated when you consume a kilowatt of electricity. Reducing a building’s carbon footprint will ultimately reduce electricity bills and save money for every individual household or business. It will also help meet the UK target for the reduction of emissions, as well as allowing you to help the environment.
