Ventilation in the apartment with the filtration types, installation

Until recently, we did not think about the air quality in our homes, relying on the fact that it is quite enough periodic ventilation and installation hoods in the kitchen. Today, the creation of additional systems becomes a necessity. It is understood by not only the owners of apartments and private homes, but also manufacturers that offer effective ventilation systems. How not to get lost in the choice and that will be most useful for creating a favorable microclimate in the room? Forced ventilation apartment filtered fresh air supply - this is the optimal solution, which may optionally be supplemented with a variety of useful options.

Why ventilation is filtered in the apartment

During the repair work in the first place pay attention to the design, choose finishing materials and their combination is analyzed. Few people think about the climate. And for good reason. Modern materials are of high quality in terms of environmental performance, have excellent energy saving performance, fire. But many of them have low air permeability. It is not everyone pays attention.

If you take the usual average apartment and analyze the materials, we can see:

• slabs - reinforced concrete;
• exterior walls with a layer heater on the basis of the adhesive;
• silicate plaster;
• window - multi-chamber double-glazed windows with a seal;
• metal Entrance door with sealing rubber band.

Conventional flat pretty tight. Naturally without ventilation fresh air flow almost misses the apartment. In addition, often chosen for decoration stretch ceiling, vinyl wallpaperslaminated panel, flag tiles, gypsum plasterboard. This adds breathability.

Lack of fresh air affects the health. This sleep disturbance, headaches, low immunity, frequent colds, cancer. Natural ventilation solves the problem of air only for a while. The most effective and comfortable - a device in the forced ventilation apartment.

Ventilation - what is it

Supply and exhaust ventilation provides the most comfortable indoor climate. The main advantages include its:

• all elements are made of ecologically safe materials;
• before being introduced into the room air masses are pre-cleaning;
• further device can be equipped with humidification system, disinfection, ionisation of air streams;
• when correctly installed system is absolutely safe;
• long service life;
• the possibility of self-assembly, which significantly reduces costs.

The operating principle of ventilation

The device ventilation in an apartment, private house or garage It involves pre-laying ventilation ducts, which enter the air masses of room. ventilation unit It can be mounted on the outside. With it, the fresh air enters the house.

If needed for indoor heating outdoor air is installed convector. The level of heating or cooling depending on the manufacturer.

The system works as follows:

1. Air is forced into the apartment ventilation system.
2. Indoors, thanks to the pressure difference, contaminated masses extend outwardly through the exhaust channels.

Despite the fact that apartment buildings air ducts are installed during construction, the individual ventilation system for the apartment can be set independently and as needed.

The main varieties of fresh air

It considered optimal ventilation, via which during 2 hours in air volume changes completely. This is only possible with the help of air-supply system. Operation of ventilation for the apartment is divided into 2 stages:

• Ventilation system submits forced air masses from street, cleans them, heats when necessary;
• exhaust system removes the polluted air.

Aeration and ventilation combines these two processes. As a result of the microclimate in the room becomes a comfortable and balanced.

Basic elements of supply and exhaust ventilation for apartments

forced ventilation device in the apartment with plastic windows includes the following components, equipment and elements:

1. Node intake. It includes the socket, valve regulation and grille.
2. filtration system.
3. Node heating airflow.
4. supply system duct. It consists of pipes that are connected to the socket on them masses are served in the room. Extras can be installed filtration system, including muffler.
5. It can be installed heat exchanger.
6. Exhaust air ducts for discharging polluted masses from the premises. They are mounted in the walls or ceiling.
7. FanCreating a pressure and vacuum channels.
8. The control system adjusts the characteristics of the process air.

It should know! The temperature of the air masses which enter the premises, should not be below + 18 ° C, and therefore the supply-exhaust system often mounted heating.

Types of forced ventilation systems for apartments

Forced-ventilation installation can be classified by the following features:

• ducted and ductless. The first air mass fed by ducts, And secondly - through air holes;
• prefabricated and packaged. The first consists of the individual parts. In the second construction includes a filter duct system, air heater controls.

Also intake system can be divided by the method of ventilation:

• local - supply to a particular place;
• complex - supply system operates uniformly over the entire area;
• alarms or smoke - triggered at elevated smoke detector in a fire.

Ventilation air heating

Continuous heating air flows through the heat exchanger occurs - recuperator. It is necessary to create a comfortable environment in a cool and winter. The principle of operation is as follows: the heat exchanger passes the air flow, without mixing them with the masses, which are derived from the premises. In other words, incoming and outgoing flows are distributed on different channels, which are located right next to each other, due to which the heat exchange takes place between them.

The second option of heating - with the help of air conditioningOperating in heat pump mode, or the heater. In such a system, exhaust air masses are mixed with supply, cleaned, it is heated to a set temperature and supplied to the room.

Air conditioning with fresh air ventilation for apartments

This type of installation is the most expensive. In it, a system of additional filtering, installing the compressor, condenser and evaporator. It includes both the venting of air mass, and cooling / heating.

The most expensive are automatically controlled. Sensors independently the monitored condition of the air, compared with the given parameters, and include a mode.

air purifying system for an apartment

When choosing the optimum and efficient cleaning of supply and exhaust systems for apartments to consider several factors:

• performance ventilation unit with which for the certain period should be made one-or two-fold replacement of air mass;
• the noise figure of the installation shall not exceed the permissible sanitary norms;
• maintenance and repairability.

opt for smaller systems can be stopped for a small urban apartments. They are inexpensive, their installation usually does not cause difficulties. The equipment is compact, it can be placed on the balcony in the room by the window, on a wall or on the ceiling. Operate such units with a small measure of noise and service area 50 sq.m. It may additionally be equipped with a function of heating the air mass.

Complete system must be purchased for private houses or apartments larger area. They are equipped with additional options: climate control, continuous air exchange, air quality monitoring.

Selection of air filter for an apartment

purification system is equipped in filters. Depending on the desired characteristics are classified into the following types:

Photo	Description	degree of purification
	G3-G4 -gruboy cleaning. For them applicable synthetic textile web or mesh of a metal.	To 10 microns
	F5-F9 - fine filter made of fiberglass.	To 1 micron
	HEPA filters.	0.1 microns

Filters for air in the apartment to protect the ventilation system from contamination, thereby prolonging the unit operation in space penetrates the minimum amount of dust and dirt, which contributes to a more favorable microclimate. Their installation should lay still at the design stage.

Filters for ventilation in the apartment can be classified into the following types:

• mechanical - perform a double protection: purify the air and ventilation from external contamination. They retain large particles and dust wool;
• Rolling - they are made of polyester. Filters of different manufacturers may differ in thickness;
• Valium - may be crimped in the form of a cassette or bag (pocket). First established in almost all ventilation systems. Pocket used after coarse filters. They are able to pick up dust deposits;
• electrostatic - catch the oil deposits. They require periodic cleaning;
• panel - made in a frame with a grid on which the filter cloth is fixed.

Fighting bacterial air pollution

In order to combat bacterial contamination filter medium and coarse not fit. For these purposes, designed air ionizer. With it, not only Clean the air massHe is also able to kill bacteria and viruses. The ionizer does not work separately and comprehensively with the ventilation system.

Collaboration nodes efficiently and effectively destroys various kinds of air flows contaminants extended lifetime ventilation.

Basic nuances of the installation of ventilation in the apartment with his hands

the ventilation system can be done in different ways: from the balcony on the floor or on the outside of the building. The easiest way to mount it on the ceiling. Works are carried out after a rough finish. You can select a monoblock design or system consisting of composing elements.

Monoblock ventilation to install their own hands easier. All components are assembled in one unit, which is equipped with a good sound insulation, moreover, it is compact. One can choose to install a heat exchanger and humidifier air masses.

The following components are included in the typesetting system:

• fan supply and exhaust;
• recuperator;
• filtration system;
• additional components that enhance the quality of the air mass.

Single-step assembly process of supply and exhaust in the room is presented in the table below:
