Heating & Ventilation
Zephyr Pure Air Ventilation system is made in New Zealand Product. Zephyr is registered with "Buy NZ Made". The Zephyr system has been designed to achieve the following benefits while operating for all twelve months of the year for an average daily cost of ten cents a day:
1. A drier, more healthy home
2. A warmer home that cost less to heat
3. Healthier fresh air for your family to breathe
4. Allergen free air for asthma and allergy sufferers
5. More comfortable home temperature with summer cooling
Condensation control for a drier, healthier home
The average household can generate up to 30 litres of water per day inside the home. The Zephyr system has been designed to achieve a superior level of condensation control in homes to heavily reduce crying windows and damp settling in soft furnishings. The results are higher occupant health standards though lower relative humidity, major reduction in mould spores and dust mites.
Through a major reduction in condensation and relative humidity, we can preserve the life of soft furnishings, drapes, carpets, as well as the entire home structure.
Many ventilation systems on the market today will bring in cold air and over-cool the home during winter. The Zephyr system will not bring in cold air to the point where your heating system will be used more, resulting in higher heating costs.
Reclaim of heat from the roof space for a warmer home
Even on winter days the air in the roof space can become quite warm. The Zephyr System spends the day transferring heat in the roof through the filter into the home to reach the occupants desired temperature, which is set on the touch pad.
With a Zephyr System installed, the home is kept at an even temperature. It takes a lot less energy to heat dry air and, when needed, your existing heating systems can bring the temperature up to your comfort level in no time. A major reduction in heating costs can be achieved with this feature.
Fresh air introduction providing healthier air for your family to breathe
The Zephyr system is the only system that monitors its run times to ensure specific air changes take place, thereby reducing the levels of pollutants and odours while delivering highly filtered fresh air to the occupants.
The Zephyr System’s run times are calculated to introduce outside air into homes at the rate of between 1-2 air changes once every 12 hours. i.e. 2 air changes per day. The system creates a positive air pressure by introducing highly filtered fresh air into your home which naturally pushes out stale and damp air.
Major reduction in air-borne particles via the HEPA filter for cleaner air
Through employing the highest level of filtration in the domestic ventilation market, the HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filter removes at least 99.99% of dust, pollen, bacteria and airborne particles 0.3 microns and greater.
Note: a human hair is approximately 150 microns
Do not be fooled by the competitors’ claims. Other ventilation companies use G4 to F6 filters. Independent filter test demonstrate those filters are unable to filter anywhere close to a HEPA filter.
If you are going to bring air in from outside or from a roof space, you want the highest level of filtration available, that’s what you get from a Zephyr HEPA filter. Asthma and allergy suffers will enjoy the health benefits of breathing fresh, dry, allergen free air.
Summer cooling during summer nights for a more comfortable home
During summer evening and nights, the Zephyr Ventilation system will bring cooler outside air in to thermostatically cool the home when it is hot and humid.
Heat transfer from one area to others in the home for warmer home
There is an option to add a heat transfer kit that will allow for warm air from one area of the home, say the living area with a fire, to be transfer to the other areas of the home after being passed through the HEPA filter.
