Customised vent solutions from Carl F
Written for Glass Times Magazine March 2008 issue
Carl F Petersen has extended its ventilation product portfolio with latest Greenwood Airvac lines. The ventilation solutions added to Carl F's hardware range include products that meet acoustic requirements and a slim line aluminium ventilator. Custom-made over frame designs have also been introduced to the Carl F catalogue for the new build and refurbishment markets.
As an established supplier of Greenwood Airvac lines, Carl F has a strong partnership relationship with the ventilator manufacturer and, in line with Carl F's brand objectives, Greenwood products combine ease of application and design quality.
Depth of product understanding is an important part of Carl F's service philosophy and, as a result, the company has invested in extensive training from the Greenwood team. Working at Carl F's premises, the ventilator manufacturer equipped the distributor with comprehensive theoretical background and practical installation advice.
Commenting, Louise Lai, Marketing Manager for Carl F Petersen said:
"This is a high specification range with tailored products designed to meet individual requirements. Following on-site training by Greenwood at Carl F's premises, our staff are fully versed in the technical capabilities of the latest Greenwood Airvac products and can support customers across all sectors in their ventilation needs.
With growing use of brownfield sites for new build development, the need to minimise noise from neighbouring roads, industrial sites or airports is increasing. Additionally, the issue of noise is set to become a planning consideration under the PPG24 planning policy guide. Where noise issues are a planning condition, it may be necessary to install acoustic ventilation solutions that provide the required replacement air into the dwelling and reduce noise intrusion for the occupants. Meeting this need, Carl F has added the Greenwood Airvac Acoustic Humidity Control Ventilator to its catalogue which provides effective noise protection, humidity control and features a self regulating internal mechanism.
A second addition to Carl F's ventilation range is Greenwood's Referb Over Frame Ventilation System specifically designed for the refurbishment market, this product eliminates the need to rout through frames. Once installed, the ventilator complements the window, blending and becoming part of the structure. A further over frame solution has been introduced for the new build sector. The Nu-Build product, available in white, brilliant white and brown, provides a slim and unobtrusive design which maintains the integrity of the window frame.
A slimline aluminium A vent from Greenwood has also been added to the Carl F catalogue. Also supporting the new build market, this product is manufactured from aluminium alloy. Providing ventilation in line with current building regulations, a unique patented operating mechanism allows for easy control of the ventilation mechanism."
Other ventilation products in the Carl F catalogue include
F, L, SB, SF, GB and DF vents. Carl F also provide sleeves for slotvents.
