Atlantic Air specialise in air tightness management and whole house mechanical ventilation, both of which are key elements in the construction of all new dwellings.
In order to create the most comfortable living conditions it is necessary to design air tightness and ventilation strategies to work in harmony. Constructing an airtight dwelling will significantly reduce your heat load, but without a system of controlled ventilation it is neither comfortable nor healthy for the building’s occupants. It is as equally impractical to install a mechanical ventilation system in a property with inadequate air tightness. You will effectively create an environment that is over ventilated and much more difficult and expensive to heat. At low levels of air leakage (typically 2 m³/ (hr*m²) @ 50 pa or less)
. Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) can offer significant reductions in overall energy use, offsetting heating demands by pre-warming incoming replacement air.
However this can only be optimised if the best systems are to be installed – and only then if they are installed correctly.
Atlantic Air provides clients the best possible knowledge and expertise from the early stages of construction through to final completion. As independent installers we are committed to sourcing the most up to date, energy efficient heat recovery system currently available on the market. We are BPEC (British Plumbing Employer Council) certified to install, inspect, test and commission ventilation systems in both new and existing buildings. We are also accredited by the BINDT (British Institute of Non Destructive Testing) to undertake air tightness testing and consultancy on dwellings. We can provide expert advice on all fundamental design factors to ensure the envelope of the building is made as airtight as possible, whilst oversee construction works to ensure the airtight design is built correctly on site. If appointed to undertake complete air tightness management, we will assume full responsibility for ensuring that the provisions of air tightness are delivered to the highest possible standards.
Our aim is to help you create the most energy efficient house possible, one that is easy to heat and comfortable to live in. By choosing Atlantic Air you are well on your way to creating and energy efficient building with fantastic air quality within it.
