The Quality of air we breathe, directly affects our health and comfort. Inside buildings, air could be several time dirtier than outside. Harmful impurities, carbon dioxide, vapors of aerosols and household chemicals – are invisible members of our homes. So, today – we`re going to talk about why you should ventilate your room and how it affects your health.

However, how do you ventilate the room without opening windows and without losing valuable heat? Best option is to use controlled mechanical ventilation systems, which aim to bring fresh air into the rooms, filter and remove exhaust air outside, which in turn ensures support optimal maintenance of microclimate.

Healthy indoor climate and energy-efficiency – main advantages of decentralized mechanical ventilation system developed by PRANA.

Advantages of using recuperator PRANA:

By using the recuperator PRANA, you provide a comfortable environment in your property, but also get the following benefits:

• Providing humidity level correction. The recuperator remove excess moisture released during human activity or other sources and adjust it to level of humidity outside air, which is an important part in preventing the formation of fungus.
• Effective ventilation. The air could contain high concentrations of household chemicals and other harmful pieces , which cause sharp smell. The recuperator ensure removing polluted air, eliminating unpleasant odors and replacing it with fresh supply air.
• Optimal level of CO2. Humans release carbon dioxide as they breathe. Without proper airing, the level of CO2 increases, which can lead to poor concentration and overall health. To maintain a normal level of oxygen in the room, it is necessary to ventilate it regularly. By turning on the recuperator, you will ensure that for fresh air is available in your home 24 hours a day.
• Maintaining a comfortable temperature. Recuperators PRANA use the heat recovery. Thanks to copper heat exchanger, energy from exhaust air is transferred to supply air, providing comfortable temperature in room. The energy transfer coefficient by ventilation system PRANA reaches 98%, which allow to minimize energy consumption and maintains the optimal supply air temperature in home.

How does the PRANA mechanical ventilation system work?

Mechanical ventilation systems contribute to remove exhaust air from premises by mechanically, with help of ventilators. Yes, ventilation guarantees air exchange, regardless of weather conditions, as it happens in natural ventilation systems.

So, how to properly ventilate room with assistance of household recuperator. It all depends on the operating mode that you choose.

If there is an unpleasant smell, choking, etc. it is recommended immediately turn on recuperator mode «Boost» . This is the maximum operating mode of the system, designed for quick ventilation. It is not recommended to use it on a regular basis.

A person consumes less air at rest, so the «Night mode» is designed specifically for nighttime use. Additionally, the night mode is accompanied by quiet operation and minimal noise for a comfortable sleep.

Also, to ensure the most comfortable microclimate, we recommend using the «Scenario» function, which will help you turn on the ventilation system in advance before you return home. You can use this function through the mobile application, which allows you to remotely control the system.

The ECO ENERGY and ECO LIFE models are equipped with an intelligent automatic control system that automatically selects the optimal operating mode for the recuperator. This function is available in two versions: AUTO and AUTO+, which provides convenient and efficient control of the ventilation process in the room.

The automatic modes work according to a special algorithm that selects the optimal settings based on the data received from the sensors: relative humidity, CO2eq, and TVOC in real time.

The algorithm reacts to an increase in relative humidity and/or a deterioration in air quality, mainly CO2eq and TVOC, by automatically increasing/decreasing system performance, depending on the data received from the sensors.

In the «AUTO+» mode, the recuperator operates according to a similar algorithm to the «AUTO» mode, but with restrictions on air exchange to ensure a more comfortable noise load. The maximum allowable fan speed is 2.

This feature allows you to maintain an optimal level of air quality without the need for constant manual adjustment. This ensures a comfortable and healthy living or working environment, contributing to the overall well-being of users.

To achieve maximum efficiency and ensure a comfortable indoor climate, it is recommended to use recuperators 24/7, even in your absence. This will help to ensure optimal air exchange in your home and allow you to enjoy fresh air at any time of the day.
