Ventilation Systems

Ventilation Systems

Ventilation solutions in residential buildings are indispensable for people to get the oxygen they need to live and to maintain a healthy life. Furthermore, removing dangerous particles that mix with the indoor air from emissions of building materials and household items is an absolute solution to eliminate the threat these particles pose to our lives.

To improve indoor air quality, a sufficient amount of fresh air must be supplied to the environment. In older buildings, the outside air that naturally mixed with the indoor air due to infiltration was enough to meet this need. However, over the past 100 years, with increased environmental and energy awareness, buildings have become airtight, resembling a thermos. In cases where there is no mechanical ventilation, this can even lead to deaths from lack of oxygen.

One of the most important issues to highlight regarding the importance of ventilation in a home is undoubtedly human health. At Modinox Stainless Systems, we prioritize the health of our valued customers and put quality first in our products.

Shunt Chimney (Shared Flue System)

This is a type of chimney that allows for the extraction of odors and smoke from kitchen range hoods.

It is produced in two different types: with internal and external branches.

A chimney flap with a gasket is used at the branch connections to prevent the backflow of odors and smoke drawn from the range hood.

Internally Branched Shunt Chimney

This system can be used when there’s not much space within the shaft. It’s an ideal
chimney with its guaranteed operation and high draft, which is advantageous for
aspirators.

Externally Branched Shunt Chimney

A shunt flue system is the preferred choice when a shaft is available.
Modinox is a leading company in the shunt flue system industry.
