Nuaire Named Triple Finalist of H&V News Awards

Nuaire Named Triple Finalist

September 2017

Boxer Packaged Solutions, Nuaire’s catalogue air handling unit range, is nominated for both ‘Air Movement Product of the Year’ and ‘Commercial HVAC Product of the Year - Cooling/Ventilation’. The Q-Aire 1Z all-in-one MVHR and acoustic enclosure is nominated for Best Domestic Ventilation Product of the Year.

The prestigious award ceremony, now in its 23rd year, celebrates innovation and the highest achievements across the building services industry. While the applications are poles apart, the two products share one common theme. Both Boxer Packaged Solutions (BPS) and the 1Z are designed to meet the biggest challenges facing consultants and contractors in their respective sectors. Boxer Packaged Solutions (BPS) is a highly-efficient semi-centralised AHU range. After 16 years of designing bespoke AHUs, Nuaire has channelled its knowledge into creating its first standard pre-selected catalogue range up to 6m3/s. Innovation is evident in the carefully selected sizes, driven by extensive experience and customer interaction. The increments and options for ‘flow versus pressure’ have been chosen to suit the most common customer requests, allowing Nuaire’s customers to specify a unit that is just right for the application.

Nuaire’s Business Development Director, Andy Mudie explained: “BPS gives customers an AHU range that is easy to select and quick to order. And as it’s a catalogue range, we are able to build-in extra features such as pre-wiring and build-in, factory tested controls. These features save customers time and money without sacrificing performance.”

The thermal wheel and plate heat exchangers are up to 94% efficient, and the addition of the pre-wired Ecosmart Control Platform affords users full controllability of their energy-usage at the touch of a button. The unique construction of BPS is ‘patent applied for’ and meets the highest levels of classification. Its super-strong construction further reduces energy consumption by preventing heat loss and leakage, and reduces condensation damage. On the residential side, Nuaire’s Q-Aire range of products is designed to complement its market-leading MVHR range. The Q-Aire 1Z is a fully acoustically-treated, all-in-one unit that represents a new direction for MVHR noise solutions. The 1Z places the MVHR system together with a 4-way attenuator, AV-mounts and flexible duct connections all within a sleek, modern acoustic enclosure.

The first of its kind in the domestic ventilation industry, the 1Z solves the problem of MVHR vibration, in-duct and breakout noise all at once. These noise issues have become commonplace in city apartment building where MVHR systems are being used to tackle overheating, but are subject to strict acoustic criteria. Mr Mudie commented: “The 1Z product really is a game-changer, and we’re delighted it is shortlisted for a H&V News award. The 1Z solves the growing MVHR noise problem facing housebuilders due to the lightweight fabric construction of urban apartments, the issue of overheating and the additional factor of external noise and air pollution. In this way, it is both a highly innovative and highly realistic design.”

The winners will be announced during the glittering awards ceremony at the Grosvenor House Hotel, London on 20 April 2017.
