The addition to the existing Lossnay range is placed specifically for the UK housing market. The new model is designed to continuously extract stale air from spaces like bathrooms, kitchens, toilets, and utility rooms. The system replaces indoor air with filtered fresh air from outside. It also minimises the amount of energy lost by recovering the heat from the extracted air and transferring it to the fresh air supply, maintaining a temperature closer to that inside. The system will operate continuously at low noise levels, providing a solution for residential homes and apartments where comfort is key. Occupants can enjoy all of the benefits of fresh air without wasting energy. The new residential range comes with optional NOx (nitrogen oxide) and particulate matter filtration, with a third filter pocket for additional NOx emissions filtration. This means that buildings in even the most polluted environments can be supplied with clean, healthy air. A built-in automatic summer bypass allows the units to bring in fresh air from outside without recovering heat, reducing the risk of overheating. This bypass provides a solution for cooling down a dwelling that may have overheated during the day, becoming active once the outside temperature has dropped in the evening. The unit can automatically enter bypass mode when it detects the space is hotter than desired and the outside air is cool enough. les.mitsubishielectric.co.uk/products/ventilation ARMACELL TUBOLIT SPLIT & DUOSPLIT HAVE ACHIEVED EUROCLASS BL-s1,d0 Armacell, a worldwide leading manufacturer of flexible insulation materials for equipment insulation and engineered foams, has achieved one of the highest fire performance ratings for its pre-insulated seamless drawn copper pipes (Euroclass BL-s1,d0). The enhanced safety of the environmentally sustainable Tubolit Split and DuoSplit products makes them ideal for use as part of the external air source heat pump systems that the government is encouraging in its drive to achieve carbon neutrality. Pre-insulated with Armacell's Tubolit closed-cell polyethylene, Tubolit Split and DuoSplit are designed for domestic and commercial use. Versatile in application, they can be used to connect the indoor and outdoor components of split and multi-split air-conditioning systems, and are ideal for connecting to external air source heat pumps. The products are suitable for use with refrigerants R-410A and R-407C and R-32 and R-290 in accordance with EN 12735-1. Tubolit Split is a single pre-insulated copper pipe, DuoSplit is a pair of flow-and-return pipes for use when the two follow the same route. Armacell o™ers one of the largest portfolios of HVAC-R and industrial insulation products. Established in 1966 as Armstrong Cork and renamed in 2000, the company has supplied some of the UK's biggest and best-known technical insulation projects for over 50 years. www.armacell.co.uk IMPROVED AESTHETICS WITH HAORI WALL MOUNT RANGE In what Toshiba describe as a product that redefines residential aesthetics, the new HAORI range of wall mounted air conditioning units comes complete with a selection of fabric facia covers, o™ering a unique take on matching interior design. It is available with a range of di™erent cover fabrics that wrap around the facia and secure in place with Velcro. The options of matching to a room's décor are endless, using the template provided to create a custom-made cover. HAORI -the new brand that Toshiba have adopted refers to a traditional Japanese jacket that is worn over a kimono by both men and women. The new range of wall mounts includes a plasma ioniser to neutralise viruses and bacteria along with Toshiba's Magic Coil with self-cleaning functionality. The system is designed to operate with the A2L classified R32 refrigerant and boasts an A+++ energy performance with Seasonal Energy EŸciency Ratings (SEER) of 8.6 and 5.1 Seasonal CoeŸcient of Performance (SCOP). Noise ratings of 19 dB(A) are listed for quiet mode operation with 41 dB(A) in high fan speed and outdoor noise ratings of 44 dB(A) reducible via a low noise mode. Integrated WIFI connectivity means HAORI can be controlled via the Toshiba AC Control app with newly introduced features such as energy monitoring and voice control when used with Google Home Assistant and Amazon Alexa. www.toshiba-aircon.co.uk BITZER CSH SCREW COMPRESSORS ADAPT FOR HEATING APPLICATION In a move to align itself with the global decarbonisation process, Bitzer has increased its CSH screw compressors' operational envelopes to meet the increasing demand for large scale heat pumps. When operational with R134a, R513A and R1234yf, the CSH series can operate with an increased condensing temperature of 80°C , an increase of 10°C from previous limits and a maximum evaporating temperature of 30°C . With R1234ze and the new addition R515B, maximum temperatures of 40°C evaporation and 93°C condensing are achievable. In economiser operation and with the refrigerant R1234ze, the largest approved CSH screw compressor supplies around 1,000 kW of heating capacity at 35°C evaporation temperature and 80°C condensing temperature. www.bitzer.de/gb/en/ The guide to what’s new for ACR Journal readers, offering vital industry news.
