Enhanced Domus Radial Systems From Polypipe Ventilation offer Versatile Hybrid Solutions
Friday 21st March 2014
Polypipe Ventilation is pleased to announce the launch of its next generation of Domus Radial duct systems.
A versatile and flexible solution, Domus Radial (patent pending) serves each room vent via semi-rigid duct which connects directly to a central distribution system splitting the air from a manifold, otherwise known as an air distribution box. In specific market applications, the system benefits from less air leakage, improved air flow, easier installation and commissioning, plus quieter performance.
As part of its ongoing extensive new product introduction programme, Polypipe Ventilation has re-engineered Domus Radial to incorporate a new innovative 125mm deep manifold. This ultra slimline size makes it ideal for installation between loft joists or in tight spaces. The smaller manifold size also allows for greater location flexibility, removing the need to place the manifold adjacent to the centralised appliance.
As well as Domus Radial Ø75mm semi-rigid ducting, the new manifold can now also be integrated with Domus rigid duct systems by connecting directly from the centralised appliance through Domus Megaduct 220x90mm or Domus Easipipe Ø150mm ducting. This not only provides the installer with the ability to fit a hybrid system but also helps maximise air flow and versatility.
As an added benefit to the homeowner the newly improved Radial system also features a new plenum which incorporates optional twin connections to allow double duct runs to each room, providing reduced duct resistance and greater air flow capacity, which can greatly improve appliance operation and efficiency.
Domus Radial semi-rigid duct also offers the added benefit of strength and flexibility through its corrugated construction and unique polyethylene formulation; to eliminate stress cracking and reduce the risk of damage under site conditions.
Domus Radial can be used in all domestic properties and is also suited to larger houses where modern methods of construction may make traditional ducting problematic, e.g. as a result of poor access to voids, or where multiple room extraction is required.
Domus Radial has been designed for use with Polypipe’s whole house centralised ventilation systems. These include, Polypipe’s award winning Silavent Green Line HRX and SAP Q-topping HRX2 Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) units and the extremely compact Silavent Green Line CMX Mechanical Extract Ventilation (MEV) unit.
