Multi-Story Demand-Controlled Ventilation (DCV) Systems
Intelligent multi-zone DCV for shared vertical risers handling kitchen, bath, and dryer exhaust in residential and commercial towers.
Overview
Intelligent, multi-zone demand-controlled ventilation platforms engineered to regulate shared vertical exhaust risers in multi-story residential and commercial buildings. Designed to handle mixed-use source points including commercial / residential kitchen hoods, continuous bathroom exhaust, and clothes dryer connections across multiple floors. Localized pressure, air-quality, or current-sensing logic monitors real-time demand. By replacing outdated single-speed 24/7 exhaust fans with dynamic modulation, the system automatically drops to an ultra-low code-compliant standby speed when source zones are idle, slashing fan electrical consumption and eliminating continuous loss of conditioned building air.
