Air intake/exhaust

The method of accessing outside for intake and exhaust will very much depend on the selected unit location. If located in a loft area, then there are three options;

  1. Roof vents – Click here to view image
  2. Soffit vents
  3. Wall vents

If located in a utility space, then wall vents are the preferred option. There is a requirement that air exhausted will not easily be drawn back in at the intake and for this reason intake and exhaust points must have at least 2.5 m of separation, or an angular difference of at least 90 degrees.
