Ventilation improves the quality of an indoor space and can prevent unpleasant odors, allergies and health problems. There are two methods, uncontrolled or controlled ventilation, in other words natural or mechanical ventilation. But what is the difference?
Natural ventilation is the healthiest form of ventilation. Found in grilles on exterior walls, open windows or exhaust and supply ducts. You can easily adjust the amount of ventilation according to your needs. Natural ventilation is the most sustainable ventilation because there is no energy consumption. Moreover, it also has a positive effect on the EPC value.
With mechanical ventilation , the flow rate (amount of air per unit time) is self-determined. Often natural ventilation is insufficient, especially in homes that are well insulated. Natural airflow is almost impossible here, there are no gaps anywhere through which air can enter or leave the home. If you want to make sure there is good ventilation you can rely on mechanical ventilation.
You can come to us for two different ventilation systems, system C and system D.

System C: This system draws fresh outside air in through grilles in walls or windows. System c combines natural ventilation with a mechanical ventilation system
Ventilation grilles naturally supply fresh air while a fan mechanically exhausts polluted air. However, this system has some drawbacks, when it is cold outside fresh air comes in with it, this causes a loss of heat. Conversely, when it is hot outside this warm air also comes in. This will cause you to cool faster with e.g. air conditioning. which in turn gives a higher electrical consumption.
System D: Also called balance ventilation. The system is based on creating a balance between supply and exhaust of clean air. No grilles are involved here. The clean air is filtered, which is ideal for air quality. System D supplies heated air, reducing heat loss to an absolute minimum.
Thus, system D uses less energy than system C. If you want to be sure that your home is optimally ventilated, do not hesitate to contact us, we will be happy to help you.
A young and driven team? You can say that because the guys from Energy King were the last party to come to me to make a quote for my heat pump . Their proposal was much clearer, logically structured and very competitive in price. Meanwhile we are two months later and everything is already installed so I can recommend EnergyKing to everyone!
I made the decision to install solar panels in July and was actually firmly convinced that I was too late and that it was not interesting (anymore) because the certificates have disappeared. But EnergyKing calculated with me and because money in the bank no longer yields anything I now get a guaranteed return and do something good for the planet. Win-win for me and nature!
We put up a new building last year and were still looking for a good partner for our energy system, price was very important because we were actually running out of budget. Of the 6 offers Energy King actually came out as a party that was very competitive and yet fair with us because they said what could and could not be done. So we went with them and they did a perfect installation very quickly and at a very competitive price. My wife was impressed
We are currently renovating an old farmhouse because that was always our dream. We want an old house, but with modern comforts. EnergyKing took care of the energy and proposed a plan with what we can do immediately and what we can do eventually to pay as little as possible on energy. The heat pump is already there, soon the rest!
