INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the Ventrite Website.

Please feel free to explore and enjoy our website. If you feel that the products on offer may be of interest to you we will be happy to provide you with further details.
Why Ventilate? 
  • People typically spend a large percentage of their time indoors.
  • Condensation
  • Mould (May be hidden)
  • Health hazard to people and structure
  • The correct balance of heating, insulation and ventilation can control condensation.
  • Additional hazards as listed below.

 
Older New Zealand houses were built with natural ventilation around the windows, doors and through other poorly sealed areas in the house. This causes a cold draughty house. New houses are designed to block out natural infiltration of air to give a relatively draught free house. (Without ventilation a byproduct is condensation.)     
Additional Hazards.

There are also other reasons for adding trickle ventilation to a home.

  • Smoke. Smoking in a house gives off many toxins.
  • Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) cleaners, paints, varnish, cosmetics to name but a few.
  • pet smells or general stagnation smells from a locked up house
  • Cooking smells.
  • Moisture causing condensation leading to mould.
  • Radion. (Natural cancer causing gas given off by the decay of radium in the soil)

 
With tighter houses condensation will occur as moist air comes into contact with cool surfaces.

These areas are in danger of unhealthy mould growth.

 

 
Where does the moisture come from.
  • Each person produces about 1.5 litres of water a day whilst breathing.
  • About 500ml of water is introduced into the home during a 10 minute shower.  
  • Boiling kettles.
  • Cooking and baking.
  • Drying washing.

 

Why Trickle Ventilation?

  • Controllable passive ventilation will assist in the removal of water vapour, and other pollutants, from the air without significantly affecting the internal temperature.  The removal of water vapour will reduce the incidence of condensation.
  • Security of the dwelling is not compromised in any way. The trickle ventilators can be left open during the night, or all day even if the occupant leaves the premises.
  

 

TRICKLE VENTS ARE AN ECONOMIC SOLUTION TO YOUR VENTILATION PROBLEMS.

OUTSIDE AIR IS GENERALLY DRYER THAN THE AIR IN YOUR HOME. A FREE FLOW OF AIR INTO YOUR HOME BUT AVOIDING LARGE AMOUNTS OF HEAT LOSS AND DRAUGHTS IS AN ECONOMIC SOLUTION.

OPENING A WINDOW IS NOT ALWAYS A SECURE OPTION.

TITON® TRICKLE VENTS GIVE SECURITY AND VENTILATION AT THE SAME TIME.

YOUR HOME WILL NO LONGER BE STUFFY AFTER A HOLIDAY.

 
 

Trickle ventilation was invented in Scandinavia and has been tested by Titon over many years. Major building research bodies and energy efficiency programmes advocate the need for background ventilation.
