SolarVenti for Permanent Homes
Dehumidifies, ventilates and heats your home with free solar energy.
The SolarVenti® solar air collector in your home can prevent the humid and closed indoor environment and avoid the appearance of condensation and oxidation, as well as the formation of musty smell and stale, saturated air.
Free ventilation with warm, dry air throughout the year with the SolarVenti® air collector makes your home pleasant.
When the SolarVenti® solar air collector is installed, in addition to reducing humidity levels, the air quality and health of residents will be significantly improved, as it:
- Reduces allergens
- Eliminates and prevents mold
- Prevents condensation
- Prevents corrosion of material goods
- Promotes better breathing
- Reduces musty odor in the residence
Besides being uncomfortable, high humidity levels are harmful to you and your home. If proper containment measures are not taken to control the problem, it can worsen.
With this in mind, installing the SolarVenti® solar air collector to reduce humidity levels is essential.
Furthermore, as it operates without operational or environmental costs, since the SolarVenti® solar air collector is powered by solar energy, it offers a positive contribution to savings, as the cost of heating the house with traditional systems will be lower.
For example:
— An SV14 solar air collector produces between 60-110 m³ of air per hour, with a temperature increase of up to 30 degrees from the exterior.
— An SV20 solar air collector produces between 80-140 m³ of air per hour, with a temperature increase of up to 35 degrees from the exterior.
— An SV30E solar air collector produces between 150-200 m³ of air per hour, with a temperature increase of up to 40 degrees from the exterior.
Ventilation Flow
When the sun shines on the solar air collector panel, for example on a sunny wall on the side of the dwelling, the air quickly becomes very warm inside the panel.
At the same time, the fan powered by photovoltaic solar panels — there are no electrical consumption costs for this system — begins to blow warm, dry ventilation air into the dwelling.
The air — which is blown inside — pushes the humid and “old” air out through cracks/gaps or ventilation grilles. When the house is not compact or has multiple floors, forced extraction ventilation needs to be installed — controlled by the photovoltaic panel of the SolarVenti® solar air collector or through an additional one — to accelerate air exit and “pull” all humidity through the house to the exterior.
The SolarVenti® solar air collector requires no maintenance, as during the system’s summer standby period, the filter is cleaned by the sun’s heat, eliminating all particles that may have been retained.
