ComfoAir Q
Zehnder Group UK is proud to announce
that its new ComfoAir Q range of
MVHR units – the most efficient heat
recovery system on the market - has been
awarded Passivhaus certification. This new
generation of heat recovery units offers
outstanding energy and noise performance
as well as smart technology that helps
improve the installation process and
accuracy on-site.
Why Choose MVHR?
Modern homes conform to stringent, energyefficiency
regulations and the choice of
heating and ventilation system is crucial to
achieving these standards and maintaining a
comfortable, energy efficient and healthy
indoor environment. When a fabric first,
energy efficient approach is taken to new
build, MVHR (mechanical heat recovery and
ventilation) really is the only choice - a whole
house system that works to maintain and
deliver fresh air 365 days a year.
Working across every new build sector, from
social housing to luxury high-end
developments, Zehnder has built up a
reputation as both a leading supplier and
authority on heat recovery systems and has a
particularly strong position in the Passivhaus
marketplace. Looking to build on this tradition
for innovation and excellence and following
extensive research and development, it is
proud to introduce the new ComfoAir Q
range. The next generation of MVHR unit.
Key Benefits of Zehnder ComfoAir Q Range
• World Class Performance: The range
provides up to 96% heat recovery efficiency,
making it the most energy-efficient unit on
the market and providing the greatest energy
savings to homeowners and energy bills.
• Elimination of nuisance noise: Zehnder
ComfoAir Q units are almost silent during
operation and are currently the quietest units
on the market. Did you know that for every
3dB increase, the sound you hear doubles?
ComfoAir Q = 42dB(A), while other MVHR
units = 50dB(A). This means that one
comparable MVHR product emits the same
amount of sound as eight ComfoAir Q units.
This has been achieved through the use of
innovative components designed to work
together in perfect harmony, including stateof-the-art
fan technology.
• Simple to Install: Connections can be
changed from right to left, ensuring that
everything fits even when the installation
situation is modified.
• Convenient to commission: A simple,
integrated commissioning wizard and app
assists with setting up the system exactly as
required. The commissioning process
concludes with an automatic system test and
confirmation, allowing the new unit to be put
into operation easily, quickly and safely.
• Improved Indoor Air Quality: Completely
sealed and maximised, the high-quality filters
ensure healthy, dust-free air and protect
against excessive humidity.
• Smart homeowner control: A convenient
app gives customers the right operating
solution whatever their needs.
• Maintenance: Systems can be monitored
easily via remoted access on the Zehnder
web portal. In addition, the units have easy
access for cleaning.
• Three sizes available: 350, 450 and
600 m³/h.
