Passive airflow supply installation: important information, advantages and tips

How does a passive airflow supply work?

A passive airflow supply is a crucial element in a ventilation system that ensures the supply of fresh air into buildings. By skilful placement on the exterior wall, the passive airflow supply enables the controlled entry of fresh outside air into the room. This system ensures a constant exchange of air in the building and thus contributes significantly to the well-being of the occupants and the preservation of the building fabric.

The passive airflow supply is designed so that it can direct a sufficient amount of fresh air into the room, while at the same time providing efficient protection against unwanted influences such as dirt, noise or insects. This is achieved by special sound-absorbing elements and filters that ensure that only clean and fresh air enters the interior, while pollutants and noise are kept outside.

The functioning of a passive airflow supply is based on a sophisticated system of flaps, valves or louvres that can be opened or closed as required. This enables precise control unit of the air flow and thus individualised adaptation to the respective needs in terms of air quality and temperature in the room.

By using innovative materials and intelligent technology, modern passive airflow supplies can not only ensure an efficient supply of fresh air, but also work energy-efficiently and thus contribute to reducing energy consumption. This makes them a sustainable and forward-looking solution in the field of building ventilation.

When does a passive airflow supply make sense?

A passive airflow supply is particularly useful when it comes to ensuring optimum air quality in buildings. By using a passive airflow supply, fresh air is supplied from outside to remove stale air in the building. Passive airflow supplies play an important role, especially in times when buildings are optimised for energy efficiency and there is less natural ventilation.

Architects and technical building services planners use passive airflow supplies to ensure that buildings are supplied with sufficient fresh air without causing unnecessary energy loss. The targeted supply of fresh air improves the indoor climate and prevents mould growth, which protects both the building itself and the occupants.

Another aspect that makes the use of passive airflow supplies sensible is sound insulation. Ventomaxx passive airflow supplies provide effective protection against outside noise, which is particularly beneficial in busy or noisy environments. This creates a pleasant and quiet living or working atmosphere in the building.

The modularity and flexibility of Ventomaxx passive airflow supplies also enable a customised solution for different building projects. Whether in multi-storey residential buildings, hotels, schools or single-family homes, passive airflow supplies offer a wide range of possible applications and can be customised to meet the individual requirements of the project.

Installing a passive airflow supply: what do you need to consider?

When installing a passive airflow supply, there are a few important points to consider to ensure an efficient and durable ventilation solution. Firstly, it is crucial to choose the optimum location for the passive airflow supply to ensure good air supply and air quality in the building. Attention should also be paid to any obstacles that could block the air flow.

Another important aspect is the correct dimensioning of the passive airflow supply. The size must be selected according to the air volume requirement of the room and the local conditions in order to ensure a sufficient supply of fresh air. If the size is too small, air congestion and insufficient ventilation can be the result.

When installing the passive airflow supply, care must be taken to ensure that it is installed professionally. An airtight and secure connection to the exterior wall is essential to avoid energy loss and prevent cold bridges. The integration of sound insulation and filters can also significantly improve the efficiency and comfort of the system.

Regular maintenance and cleaning of the passive airflow supply is also very important. Dirty filters can impair the air quality and limit the functionality of the ventilation system. Filters should therefore be checked at regular intervals and replaced if necessary.

Another important point is choosing the right passive airflow supply for the specific requirements of the building. Depending on the use, size and structural conditions, different models and designs of Ventomaxx passive airflow supplies can be useful. Personalised advice from experts can help to find the optimum solution.

Due to the versatility and flexibility of Ventomaxx fresh air diffuser systems, they can be easily integrated into different building concepts. Thanks to their high-quality workmanship and durable materials, they offer a reliable and efficient ventilation solution for a wide range of applications.

Passive airflow supply or decentralised mechanical ventilation system?

When deciding between a passive airflow supply and a mechanical decentralised ventilation system, specialist planners and architects are often faced with an important question. Both systems offer their specific advantages and it is important to weigh up which concept best suits the requirements of the building project.

The passive airflow supply is an effective solution for directing fresh air into the building from outside. Thanks to optimised construction methods and sound insulation components, a passive airflow supply ensures a controlled air supply without letting in noise or other unwanted elements. This type of ventilation is particularly suitable for projects where natural ventilation is required and architectural aspects play a major role.

On the other hand, decentralised ventilation systems offer an individual and efficient solution for regulating the air exchange in different rooms of a building. The ability to ventilate individual rooms in a targeted manner can increase comfort for residents and save energy costs. This form of ventilation is particularly suitable for buildings with specific requirements in terms of air quality and comfort.

The decision between a passive airflow supply and a mechanical decentralised ventilation system therefore depends largely on the individual needs and conditions of the building project. It is advisable to seek advice from experts in order to find the optimum ventilation solution for the project in question.
