Nuaire's Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) systems are specifically designed to improve indoor air quality and prevent issues like condensation dampness and mould growth in residential properties. At Platinum Chemicals, we offer a wide range of Nuaire PIV Units, including models for homes with lofts and properties without lofts. These units draw fresh, filtered air into the property, ensuring continuous ventilation that reduces humidity and eliminates indoor pollutants like radon, carbon dioxide, and household odours.
Why Positive Input Ventilation (PIV)?
PIV units are highly effective because they create positive air pressure inside the home, pushing out stale, moist air and replacing it with clean, filtered air. This process helps to reduce condensation, a key contributor to black mould growth, while also improving overall indoor air quality. Nuaire’s range of PIV units caters to various property types, from lofted homes to flats, ensuring a solution for every environment.
Nuaire PIV Units for Homes with Lofts
For properties with loft spaces, models such as the Nuaire Drimaster DRI ECO HC, DRI ECO LC, and DRI ECO HEAT HCS provide efficient, low-energy ventilation. These units are discreetly installed in the loft and introduce fresh air through ceiling diffusers, offering non-disruptive solutions for reducing condensation and improving air quality. Models like the DRI ECO HEAT HCS and DRI ECO HEAT HC include integrated heating elements to temper airflow during colder months, ensuring added comfort alongside enhanced ventilation.
Advanced units like the Nuaire Drimaster DRI ECO LINK HC and DRI ECO HEAT HC are sensor-compatible, offering seamless integration with Nuaire’s range of humidity and CO2 sensors. These systems automatically adjust airflow based on environmental conditions, delivering optimal indoor air quality without manual intervention.
PIV Units for Homes without Lofts
For homes without lofts, including flats and apartments, Nuaire offers tailored solutions such as the Nuaire Flatmaster, Flatmaster 2000L, and Flatmaster 2000R. These models are ideal for properties where a loft installation is not possible. They introduce fresh air directly into the living space, effectively combating condensation, controlling indoor humidity, and improving air quality. The Flatmaster models are available with or without heaters, ensuring a perfect fit for both new builds and retrofitting in existing properties.
Ancillary Products for Enhanced Performance
To maximize the effectiveness of Nuaire PIV units, we also offer a range of compatible accessories and filters. Products such as the Nuaire DRI-ECO-2S and DRI-ECO-4S switches allow manual control over airflow settings, while sensor options like the DRI-ECO-CO2 and DRI-ECO-RH provide automated responses to CO2 and humidity levels, ensuring optimal indoor conditions at all times. Replacement filters for both the Drimaster and Flatmaster units are available to maintain unit performance, typically requiring replacement every 12 to 18 months for Flatmaster models and every five years for Drimaster units.
Why Nuaire PIV Units are Popular
Nuaire PIV systems are widely trusted for their ability to reduce condensation and improve air quality with minimal disruption to the home. These energy-efficient systems are designed to comply with Building Regulations Part F & L, ensuring that properties meet modern standards for ventilation and energy conservation. With low maintenance requirements, long warranties, and the flexibility to accommodate a variety of property types, Nuaire PIV units are a popular choice for homeowners and landlords alike. They not only provide healthier indoor environments but also help to protect properties from long-term damage caused by dampness and mould.
