Supplying “Made in Austria” Passive House Institute Certified PKOM4 Compact Heat Pumps which provide Ventilation, Heating, Cooling and Hot Water plus PHI Certified Centralised and Decentralised Mechanical Heat Recovery Ventilation Systems for both residential and commercial projects in a range of capacities from 30-5500m3/hr.
At the 2016 Passive House Institute Component Award J. Pichler GmbH won 1st prize with the building-centralised ventilation solution with the LG 1000 Heat Recovery Ventilation unit and VAV system. The centralised device allows good accessibility for maintenance work, and the installation is simplified due to ready-made component solutions such as the VAV box which is a combined sound absorber, volume flow controller and distributor box.
The centralised ventilation unit LG 1000 is installed on the attic floor outside of the thermal envelope of the building, in a vibration-free manner. The riser ducts are housed in the stairwell.
In the corridor area, the key component for distributing air in the apartments is the combined volume flow controller/sound absorber unit (compact VAV box with electric control and integrated inspection cover), which is designed as a central distributor unit for connecting the supply air and extract air ducts.
