Ventilation system replacement? Make it more sustainable right away!

Replacing a ventilation system for a customer in the utility sector? Then consider that this is an excellent opportunity for you and your customer to make significant sustainability improvements. In this article, you'll learn all about how this works and how you, as an installer, can perfectly respond to the growing demand for sustainability that more and more customers consider as a starting point when investing in the replacement of installations.

In installation technology, ventilation systems have traditionally played an important role in creating healthy and comfortable indoor environments, especially in the utility sector. This has always been the case and will likely continue to be so. However, many existing ventilation systems are now outdated because, unlike today, there was hardly any thought given to heat recovery and energy-saving functions back then. This leads to significant energy loss and inefficiency—topics that are now high on the agenda of every building owner considering the question: how to ensure the most sustainable solution?

Energy Loss
The characteristic problem of older ventilation systems is that they lack an important link between air supply and exhaust. One system supplies air while another system exhausts it. This lack of connection results in inefficient airflow, leading to significant energy loss. Without a heat exchanger between the two systems, unnecessary heat is wasted. This is particularly burdensome on the customer's energy bill during the winter months because the heat from the exhaust air is not used to warm the incoming fresh air.

Design Principles
Unlike the past, modern ventilation systems are no longer just about air movement. When replacing a system, investigate the heat recovery possibilities and the energy efficiency of the system to be installed. Many manufacturers now consider heat recovery and energy efficiency as integral and fundamental aspects of their designs. Manufacturers who understand the market's needs pull out all the stops to create designs that minimize inefficiency and energy loss to an absolute minimum. So, if you have a customer who orders a new ventilation system, remember that you can better help them by critically looking at the sustainability aspects of the system you install, as there is much to gain for your customer.

How we do it at STULZ
At STULZ, we understand better than anyone how to respond to the changing market demand resulting from the sustainability development. With the ClimaPac Compact, we offer a highly innovative air handling solution for the utility sector, not only for ventilation but also for cooling and heating. Integrated into one total system with particularly low energy consumption and high energy efficiency.

Not surprisingly, the ClimaPac Compact is certified by Eurovent with various heat recovery options according to the Ecodesign directive. This means that this product meets the latest European standards and requirements in terms of environmental performance, considering the entire lifecycle of the product: from production and use to recycling and waste management. And perhaps equally important: the ClimaPac Compact is also a very interesting, innovative product for you as an installer.

ClimaPac Compact: the proverbial 'piece of cake'
STULZ delivers the ClimaPac Compact plug-and-play in a remarkably compact size, mounted on a frame. With the reliable quality of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' heat pumps, installation is a breeze and takes very little time thanks to the complete prefab assembly and configuration. The heat pumps are pre-assembled with an absolute minimum of cooling circuit and are fully installed and commissioned by us before delivery.

If you need to replace a ventilation system, the ClimaPac Compact is a product you can present to your sustainability-focused customers. And it's interesting for you due to the ease and speed of installation. Want to read more about the benefits or technical specifications? Check out the webpage.
