Elta Trade has launched the DEXA dMEV 150 fan, a decentralised mechanical extract ventilation unit aimed at improving indoor air quality in residential buildings. This continuous extraction fan is designed to address issues such as condensation, dampness, and mould, which are increasingly becoming concerns for local authorities and landlords in the UK. The fan operates by removing stale and moisture-rich air from areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and WCs, helping to reduce the risk of condensation.
With an airflow capacity of up to 50 litres per second, the DEXA dMEV 150 meets and exceeds the minimum standards set in Part F of the Building Regulations. It features an energy-efficient EC motor that ensures quiet operation and low power consumption. The unit is equipped with automation capabilities, including a timer and humidity sensor, which enhance its functionality by adjusting airflow based on environmental needs.
The fan is designed for flexible installation in various settings, making it suitable for both new builds and retrofitting projects.
Nick Higgs, national sales manager at Elta Trade, says: “With the DEXA dMEV 150, we’ve responded to a growing requirement for powerful, energy-efficient ventilation solutions that offer continuous air movement. Few manufacturers are producing fans in this category, and we’ve seized the opportunity to innovate. The DEXA dMEV 150 provides the flexibility, durability, and performance that contractors and specifiers need to meet today’s ventilation challenges and tomorrow’s regulations.”
