The problem of polluted air in big cities is becoming more and more urgent every year. Unfortunately, here you can't just open all the windows in the apartment and let fresh air flows into the room. By ventilating the apartment in this way, we risk letting in the smells of exhaust gases and clouds of city dust.
Air conditioners partially solved this problem. But they justify themselves only in the hot season, providing a comfortable temperature and fresh air in the room. Split systems also have a significant drawback: air conditioners simply drive the air inside the room, cooling it down.
Breezer is a relatively new invention that appeared later than air conditioners. Unfortunately, many have not yet had time to appreciate the merits of this device. Therefore, it is worth considering in more detail what a breather is and how it works.
What is a breather, device and principle of operation
The breather is a complete supply ventilation system. The device includes all components for air purification. No special hardware is required to install the system. If desired, everyone can cope with this process.
The breather is a compact unit for ventilation of air entering the system and cleaning it. Some of the systems are equipped with an additional air heating function, which is very convenient when using the device in the cold season.
Ventilation system device
The supply air ventilation system, that is, a breather, is a small device that fits perfectly into the interior of any room. It consists of the following components:
- an external valve, its function is to prevent the penetration of air into the interior of the room when the device is turned off;
- cleaning filters. They purify the air coming from the street from various types of pollution. These include microorganisms, molds, dust and small debris;
- the fan is responsible for the forced supply of air into the room;
- the electronic control system is responsible for the forced supply of air into the room;
- the ceramic heater heats up the air currents during the cold season. Climate control is responsible for its work;
- Remote Control.
Any ventilation system of this type has several filters. They provide air purification at three levels:
- basic cleaning ensures the retention of dust, spores of mold and fungi, fluff and microparticles with a size of 0.5 microns;
- non-filtration is designed to retain fine dust and harmful microorganisms;
- catalytic cleaning filters out smog and gases.
The air handling unit consists of indoor and outdoor units. The indoor unit is located indoors and the air intake is located outside. It has fairly compact dimensions, providing forced air injection to the main unit, where it is cleaned and heated.
How an air handling unit works
Everyone knows that in the absence of a normal ventilation system in a living room it is stuffy, ventilation only partially helps, because all viruses, mold spores and a large amount of microscopic contaminants remain in it. The air, instead of circulating through the rooms, is constantly stagnant.
Installing a breather solves all of these problems.The windows in the room are constantly closed, not letting in noise, dirt, dust and harmful microorganisms from the street. At the same time, the apartment is constantly circulating air masses, completely cleared of negative environmental factors.
In this case, physical laws apply. The stagnant air is displaced by a fresh stream. Unpleasant odors and dust go through the hoods installed in the kitchen and bathroom. Thus, the air in the entire apartment is cleaned. One breather is enough for full use in the entire apartment with four people living in it.
The installation works as follows:
- the fan absorbs air from the street;
- after the flow passes through the air valve, using a filter system, the air is cleaned of all impurities and odors;
- with the help of a heater, air is removed from the device and enters the room in a purified form.
Important: The breather should not be installed in rooms without air return means. In this case, it is necessary to equip it with an exhaust system, and only then can you start using the unit. If this is not done, the efficiency of the breather is minimized.
Advantages of breathers over air conditioners
Today there are 4 ways to clean the air in residential premises and offices:
- purifiers, they purify the air inside the room, but do not contribute to the entry of fresh air masses into the room;
- air conditioner, cools the air, but does not bark the influx from the street;
- ventilation valve, it will get air for 1 person, but it does not clean and does not heat it;
- a ventilation supply unit, that is, a breather, supplies air for 4 people, while cleaning and heating it.
It should be noted that the breather takes up less space; it does not require the installation of an additional external unit, unlike a split system. Another advantage is that in the process of using this device it is impossible to overcool, as is often the case with the use of modern split systems. Their users often turn on too intense air cooling, especially in a hot period of time, which is the cause of colds in adults and children.
Breezer is a completely safe supply unit for ventilation of small rooms.
Important: the recommended area for using a breather is no more than 50 m2. It can be used both in residential premises and in offices.
Features of using the system
Breezer is a compact supply ventilation system for residential premises and offices. This is an economical option that does not require significant energy costs compared to air conditioners. In this case, the following advantages of using breathers should be noted:
- the unit operates continuously 24 hours a day, the air supply mode is fully controlled by the electronic control unit;
- a system of three filters purifies the air supplied from the street, bringing it to a medical standard;
- the supply air is heated by the system, which prevents a draft in the room.
Thus, the need to open windows to the street completely disappears, from where extraneous noise, dust and allergens penetrate into the room.
Breather installation
But the installation of this device is much easier than in the case of the installation of an air conditioner. The whole process usually takes no more than an hour. The most difficult thing is to fill in a hole of the corresponding diameter in the wall. To carry out these works, it is better to turn to specialists in diamond wall drilling. They are the ones who have the necessary tools for drilling holes with a diameter of about 130 mm.
Then the fan, the pipe supplying air from the street, and, directly, the breather are installed.From the foregoing, we can conclude that all work and the device itself will not harm the repair in any way.
Important: The indoor unit is installed at the top of the wall to ensure good ventilation in the room.
Breezer is the optimal solution to the problem of a polluted city in big cities. Many of their residents began to abandon air conditioners in favor of supply ventilation systems. Only they can create the necessary microclimate in the room, maintaining the proper level of oxygen in it for the normal life of every person.
