Now available from Zehnder is the EVO, a Passivhaus-certified, ultra-slim mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR) system designed to overcome installation challenges in confined spaces.
Featuring a minimalist design (~210 mm in depth), the EVO is designed for installation in ceilings, pitched roofs, slimline cupboards, or service voids. The MVHR is purpose-built to be mounted either on ceilings or walls, horizontally, vertically or at an angle and features flexible bi-directional spigots to ensure smooth air flow at any angle as well as a double-rotating condensate drain so no inclination is required.
Where previously specifiers had viewed indoor environments with significant space constraints as potentially unviable or more challenging for MVHRs, the flexibility and size of the Zehnder EVO changes everything, particularly for offsite-built projects such as POD manufacturing and modular housing.
The system offers a heat recovery efficiency rate of up to 90%, ensuring minimal heat loss. The system also includes a 100% summer bypass function, which helps to reduce overheating in the summer months.
