To combat the challenges associated with providing adequate ventilation in hard-to-naturally ventilate spaces below suspended ground floors, Homevent has launched a mechanical ventilation alternative.
The MORI WMF Weatherproof Multi-Functional Sub-Floor Ventilation Fan is designed to control air moisture content, as well as radon gas, in sub-floor spaces.
John Bradley, Managing Director at Homevent, comments: “Adequate sub-floor ventilation below suspended ground floors can be critical to a structure’s integrity, not to mention the health implications in helping to control radon gas in affected areas. Far too often, there isn’t suitable consideration of how this can be managed long-term, which is why an alternative approach is required.”
Homevent’s MORI WMF has been designed to address the key challenges associated with sub-floor fans. It is weatherproof, which means it can be installed on the outside of the property, limiting maintenance to periodical inspection and cleaning from outside the home.
The fan has been designed to deal with operating temperatures as low as -200C and as high as 500C.
John Bradley notes: “In the ventilation industry, we know the importance of managing airflow in sub-floor spaces. However, homeowners may require convincing of the merits, which is where low utility bills are an important factor. Aesthetic design will equally be a major consideration for end-users, which is why the MORI WMF is small, discreet, and available in 5 different colours.
“We listened and learned from our customers of the challenges they faced when they were installing fans below suspended ground floors. Addressing these challenges was the central ethos behind the MORI WMF; to offer an alternative approach for hard-to-ventilate sub-floor spaces that is easy to install and maintain, while being quiet and cheap to run.”
