Volution Group plc (LSE: FAN), a leading supplier of ventilation products to the residential construction market, today announced that it has won a major contract to supply its products to the Fusion Tower in Bristol. Located in the heart of the city centre, Fusion Tower offers the next generation of student accommodation providing design-led student living with high-specification apartments that come with private on-site gym, gaming rooms and in-house cinema.
Volution’s Vent-Axia division is supplying 485 Sentinel Kinetic 200ZM ventilation units for the Fusion Tower which comprises 182 standard ensuite study bedrooms with shared kitchens and living space, 130 twodio rooms and 8 two-bedroom shared studios.
The Sentinel Kinetic Horizontal 200ZM is a pioneering mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR) system designed for new build properties. A whole house, multi-room ducted solution, this MVHR system combines supply and extract ventilation in one unit. Warm, moist air is extracted from ‘wet’ rooms through ducting and passed through the heat exchanger before being exhausted to the outside. Fresh incoming air is preheated via the integral heat exchanger which recovers more than 86% of the heat energy that would otherwise be wasted. With comfort key for occupants the system also features a ‘summer bypass’ to prevent warm air being re-introduced in summer months and an integral humidity sensor to control air humidity levels.
Ronnie George, Chief Executive of Volution Group plc said:
“We are thrilled to be involved in this exciting project which offers elegant and innovative design-led student accommodation. Fusion Tower provides exceptional student living that is relaxing, spacious and comfortable. Heat recovery ventilation is essential factor for an energy efficient and healthy living environment, reducing excessive moisture in the air, combating condensation and providing good indoor air quality and comfort for occupiers.”
