EnergyfloTM Cell - The benefits Energyflo Cell - The product

TM

Increased Yield and Revenue per Hectare The energyfloTM cell transforms the building
• U value less than 0.10 performance in into a source of ventilation air, a heat
140 mm wall cavity exchanger and a filter of airborne pollutants
• Sale of greater usable floor space circa The product is a much higher performing
2-3% vs 190mm polyurethane solution
alternative to conventional insulation
Saves on Direct Building Costs
It is available in two thicknesses; 95mm
• Thinner wall envelopes or 140mm
• Down-spec on other low carbon
technologies Using mechanical or passive means,
ventilation air is drawn into the building
Improved Air Quality through the energyfloTM cell
• Building integrated filtration
• Zero maintenance for life of building

Pollution level after the energyflo TM

In a conventional building the
space heat energy is the sum of the
ventilation conductance and the
fabric heat loss. In a DBB ventilation
air is drawn into the building (either
mechanically or passively) through
the energyfloTM. The ventilation air is
pre warmed by by 5-8°C conductive
losses that would otherwise be lost to
the building. As a consequence, low
heat loss building envelopes can be
constructed.
The heat loss from the building In a DBB, a large area of the building
