On Demand Control Ventilation Systems

Driver Renweables supply and install of DCV Equipment in Cork, Limerick and Kerry. (DCV) is a method of providing automatic regulation to the ventilation system depending on the requirements of the building and upon the needs of air change rates number of occupancy, pollution loads, general environmental factors. Demand Control Ventilation a suitable sensor and without user intervention.

Sustainable Energy
This approach can be applied to any of the system types above and has been very popular in Europe for decades. Demand Control is now a common feature of quality s continuous mechanical extract ventilation and passive stack ventilation systems.

Our Demand Control Ventilation systems, extract and supply air flow rates. These can be regulated to ventilate where and when needed, achieving an overall reduction in air renewal and associated heat losses.

Recent studies carried out in Europe demonstrate that DCV results in at least 30% reduction in ventilation losses compared to natural ventilation with conventional extract fans. It can also reduce the primary energy use of associated fans.

Extensive monitoring also shows that demand-controlled mechanical extract ventilation achieves excellent indoor air quality leaving your house fresh all day.

Benefits of DCV

  •  Low electrical running costs (from 0.27-0.5 W/l/s).
  •  No filter changes.
  •  Silent operation.
  •  Continuous demand driven extract ventilation.
  •  No occupier interface required.
  •  Humidity sensitive strips with 30 year guarantee.

The results with DCV is a system that is comparable in efficiency to heat recovery, cost effective and simple, but most importantly, quietly monitors and manages air quality. DCV is not constrained by air tightness levels, so it is suitable for all house types and all ages, new builds and commercial unit to hotels and privately owned dwellings in Cork, Limerick and Kerry.
