Simple and Effective

Poor air quality can be attributed to many problems arising in the workplace or in the home. It is believed to contribute to a significant loss in productivity, low morale and higher rates of sickness amongst many employees. The object of providing good ventilation alongside air conditioning in residential and commercial buildings is to provide conditions under which people can live and work in comfort and safety.

Excellent Air Quality System and Unbeatable Heat Exchange Efficiency

Developed and refined over the past 35 years, the Lossnay system has perfected the recovery of energy that would have otherwise been wasted. The units reduce overall energy costs by extracting stale air and then recovering the heating or cooling energy to either warm or cool incoming fresh air. By utilising this energy, the Lossnay system can save up to 30% on initial capital costs of heating and cooling plant by reducing the load of the occupied space, resulting in the need for a smaller heating and/or cooling system.

The secret of the Lossnay system lies in the cross flow, plate fin structure of the heat exchange unit.

A diaphragm made of specially processed paper fully separates inlet and exhaust air supplies, ensuring that only fresh air is introduced to the indoor environment.

Improvements to the Lossnay

The microscopically small pores of the diaphragm have been made even smaller, decreasing the rate at which water soluble gases such as Ammonia and Hydrogen pass through. Further, a new specially processed paper used to make the diaphragm has been developed with high moisture permeability characteristics. This aids in the transfer of moisture and improves the effectiveness of shielding unwanted gases, resulting in highly efficient energy transfer.

Effective Ventilation

Lossnay’s simultaneous air exhaust/supply provides effective ventilation. Conventional ventilators (i.e. extract propeller fans) do not work effectively within air tight buildings because of the negative air pressures involved.

Good Energy Recovery

Total heat (sensible and latent) recovery provides a comfortable air temperature within the room. The energy saved by using Lossnay contributes towards lowering the heating or cooling requirement within the building, therefore reducing the energy requirement and running costs.

Free Cooling “By-pass” Function (LGH series)

When the outdoor temperature is lower than the indoor air conditioned temperature in the summer, Lossnay provides fresh outdoor cool air to reduce the indoor air temperature.

Good Sound Attenuation

As the Lossnay core is made of paper and the permeable holes are small, the Lossnay core provides outstanding soundproofing properties and is appropriate for sound proof rooms.

Part L2 Building Regulations

With the introduction of Part L2 (Part J in Scotland), new building design is changing to become more airtight, as well as energy efficient. The need for fresh air has remained the same however and thus poses new challenges for modern design. Lossnay fully meets these challenges due to its basic principal and its efficient heat recovery.
