Vento are excited to introduce the innovative Airius PHI-Cell that literally is a breath of fresh air!

Buy and install it’s as simple as that.

The following is a list of well recognised companies in the UK that have already implemented this new system and it provides testimony to the fantastic benefits that can be achieved
 
- British Airways (Emcor)
- Marks & Spencer
- Sainsbury’s
- Lloyds Pharmacy
- Boots
- GE Aviation
- Telent

The Airius Photohydroionization (PHI) is a combination of two new proprietary technologies:
1) Airius Destratification Unit - Air movement technology
2) Photohydroionization Cell (PHI) - Air purification technology - Advanced Oxidation Technology

Description of Airius Destratification Unit
The Airius Destratification Fan Unit is a new technology that significantly reduces HVAC energy consumption in non-domestic buildings. The Airius system recirculates heated air which constantly rises to the ceiling, directing it back down to floor level in a concentrated column; this results in an equalisation of temperature from floor to ceiling. The net result is reduced energy consumption and reduced carbon emissions, whilst dramatically improving the comfort of staff and visitors in a building by eliminating hot and cold spots.

Description of Photohydroionization (PHI) Cell and Technology
Air purification is critical in maintaining healthy building environments through the removal of contaminants in the air. Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and indoor air pollution has a major influence on the health, comfort and well-being of building occupants and with recent health epidemics such as MRSA and SARS, IAQ is recognised by government agencies and organisations, (such as BRE, FETA, HSE etc.) as a major environmental health issue.  Poor air quality has been linked to Sick Building Syndrome, reduced productivity in offices and impaired learning in schools. Mould, once considered an unpleasant natural product, is now believed to be the cause of many respiratory diseases. Most colds and viruses are transmitted indoors by airborne germs.

Reasons to use the Airius PHI Technology

• The Airius PHI continually circulates the air through the Airius PHI unit, passing the air directly through germicidal UV light to destroy 99% of all known biological micro-organisms (germs, viruses, bacteria).
• PHI is very effective on 97% of gases, vapours, VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and odours.
• The combination of safe low level ozone (O3) and UV light enhanced by a hydrated quadmetallic compound target develops an advanced oxidation reaction that creates as well as reduces ozone to safe low levels. 
• Gives facilities fresh, clean and odour free air.
• In addition, while the air is continuously being purified, the space is also being thermally equalized. This results in improved comfort though the elimination of hot and cold spots and the potential for a significant reduction in energy consumption by balancing the floor and ceiling temperature.

Where Should I Use the Airius PHI Technology?

• Hospitals & aged-care facilities
• Educational institutions & facilities
• Recreational & public event facilities    
• Waste disposal & refuse collection facilities
• Selected industrial and commercial facilities
• Selected retail – restaurants & bars
• Government & law enforcement facilities

(21-24 November 11)

The Crown Prince and Crown Princess of Denmark are visiting Australia this week with a delegation of Danish companies to promote and represent the new green economy sector under the banner of ‘State of Green- Join the Future. Think Denmark’. This visit coincides with the opening of Envï- a sustainable project that Vento is very proud to introduce.

Envï is located at Pakenham Springs Primary School and provides inspiration to the next generation of energy efficient relocatable classrooms. Envï was tailor made by Vento with automated windows from WindowMaster and secure SOLA-BOOST systems from Monodraught.

Here at Vento we are thrilled that the Carbon Tax has been passed. What a great step in the right direction for our environment.

But we know that, for some of you, this tax feels like just another pointless scheme and cost burden that you really do not wish to deal with right now, and we understand that.

The thing is being proactive will end up saving you more money in the long run.

Take a look at the following summary exemplifying the Paybacks for an average existing retail store of 5000m² if they were to implement the SUNPIPE® natural daylight systems, Air Pear and WINDCATCHER® natural ventilation systems.

As these figures are based on retro-fitting our systems into the existing store, the paybacks would significantly reduce if these energy saving methods were implemented in new buildings.

Save today to save tomorrow!

Do you want to save costs?
Do you want to be socially responsible?
Do you want to be a leader in your field?

Take a look at others who are leading the way:

Strathalbyn Library WindowMaster systems

Vento worked closely with Brown Falconer Architects to successfully integrate our WindowMaster NV Comfort automated window natural ventilation system with the heating and cooling systems within the Library to provide a mixed mode ventilation solution for the end user. Harrold and Kite, successfully installed the system.

Northlands Secondary College SOLA-BOOST systems

Vento worked alongside Cundalls, Melbourne, to provide 11 SOLA-BOOST systems to seven rooms within the College allowing for natural ventilation to work alongside heating to provide a comfortable environment for the students, whilst also allowing for night purging through the SOLA-BOOST systems to ensure a cool start up temperature each morning. Coldflow Mechanical Services successfully installed the systems.
