Frost protection
MVHR systems require frost protection to ensure that the condensation in the heat exchanger does not freeze. MVHR systems for Passivhaus require active frost protection and we can advise on the best system for your project.
Electrical resistance frost protection unit. With ultra safe self-modulating ceramic element
Ground
source heat collector. Form of frost protection offering moderate
pre-heating/ pre-cooling of intake air using a glycol solution as a
passive heat transfer medium. This not an active heat pump but a passive temperature exchange. The maximum cooling effect of these types of system is approximately 650 W/ 100m3 of ventilation.
Ground pipe systems. Offering frost protection and pre-heating/ pre-cooling supply air by means of underground pipes.
