Words from the pros: Alexandre LE TROQUER, director of Brink CS

Guillaume Guerbette, the founder of Lacentrale-eco interviewed Alexandre LE TROQUEUR, sales director for France at Brink Climate System.

 

Why does double flow ventilation improve indoor air quality?
What are the differences between single and dual flow ventilation?

Why does the double flow ventilation unit blow temperate air into the living rooms?

It eliminates the feeling of cold in the rooms that you can have with a single flow HVAC. Double flow CMV also improves the acoustic comfort due to the non-presence of grids on the windows.

The sound quality is improved with double flow CMV.

Alexandre explains the method of calculating the internal air renewal and the air renewal rate, with the difference between single flow and double flow systems.

 

What is the market for double flow ventilation in France and Europe?

The European market for double flow CMV represents more than 150,000 units. There has been an increase of 10 to 15% in the residential sector.

The European regulations on air handling systems have made it possible to reduce the number of air handling systems.

European regulations have highlighted the importance of air quality in housing, which has of course boosted the market, as in Italy or Spain.

France with its volume of 22,000 rooms per year has been stagnating for many years. The French thermal regulations do not favour the installation of these machines.

The French thermal regulations do not favour the installation of these machines.

In fact, it favours the engine consumption aspect and in no case the indoor air quality aspect.
 

 

Why do we see such a wide price gap between the dual flow CMVs on the market

?

Here are the reasons given for these price differences:

  • The performance of the engines and their electric consumption
    • .
  • The performance of the heat exchanger according to the certifications
  • The acoustic performance of the unit
  • The acoustic pressure, which corresponds to the power required to push the air
  • The proposed regulation, with remote control
  • Does the machine have a built-in siphon with a pre-heating battery? 
  • The airtightness of the device. The body of the device
