The Brookvent Aircycle 1.3 Digital is a high-performance Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) system designed to provide continuous, balanced ventilation for small to medium-sized residential properties, including apartments, houses and self-build developments.
The system continuously extracts stale, moisture-laden air from areas such as kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms, while simultaneously supplying fresh, filtered air to living spaces and bedrooms. Before the extracted air is discharged outside, its heat energy is recovered through the unit’s heat exchanger and transferred to the incoming fresh air. This helps reduce heat loss through ventilation while maintaining a consistent supply of fresh air throughout the property.
Designed for Flexible Installation
The Aircycle 1.3 Digital has been designed to suit the practical requirements of modern residential properties. The unit can be wall, floor or ceiling mounted, providing greater flexibility when planning installation and allowing the system to be accommodated where space is limited.
Its compact and versatile design makes the Aircycle 1.3 Digital suitable for a wide range of applications, including apartments, houses, self-build projects, refurbishment projects and residential developments.
Energy-Efficient Ventilation
With heat recovery efficiency of up to 92% and Specific fan power (SFP) down to 0.51 (w/l/s) he Aircycle 1.3 provides efficient continuous ventilation while helping to reduce heat loss from the home.
The system recovers heat from extracted air and transfers it to incoming fresh air, helping to maintain a comfortable indoor environment while reducing the energy required to heat replacement air. Combined with continuous ventilation and filtration, the Aircycle 1.3 helps provide a healthier and more comfortable home.
Advanced Digital Control
The Aircycle 1.3 Digital offers four fully variable airflow modes, allowing ventilation rates to be adjusted to suit the property's requirements:
-
Night mode: Supports quieter ventilation during sleeping hours.
-
General mode: Provides everyday ventilation at the commissioned airflow rate.
-
Boost mode: Increases ventilation when additional extraction is required, such as during cooking or showering.
-
Purge mode: Provides a higher ventilation rate when rapid air replacement is needed.
The required remote digital controller provides access to system settings and operating information, supporting precise commissioning and adjustment within the configured parameters. Additional features include programmable boost settings, operating-hours monitoring, fault alerts and filter maintenance reminders. The filter reset Pin is 1234.
Automatic Summer Bypass
The Aircycle 1.3 has an automatic summer bypass to help keep your home comfortable during warmer weather.
When the outside temperature rises above 17°C and the indoor extracted air temperature rises above 21°C, the bypass automatically opens. This allows fresh air to bypass the heat recovery core, helping to bring cooler outdoor air into the home without recovering heat from the outgoing air.
The bypass will automatically close when either the outside temperature falls below 17°C or the indoor temperature falls below 21°C.
Automatic Frost Protection
The Aircycle 1.3 has an automatic frost protection function to help protect the heat recovery core during cold weather.
When the outside temperature drops below the factory-set 5°C, the supply fan automatically switches off for 5 minutes every hour. This allows warmer air from inside the home to pass through the heat recovery core without cold fresh air entering at the same time.
This helps raise the temperature inside the unit and prevents ice from forming within the heat recovery core, helping to protect the system and maintain reliable operation during colder conditions.
Frost protection operates automatically, so no manual adjustment is required.
Please Note - The Aircycle 1.3 Digital has to be used with the aircycle controller, the unit will not work if you do not have a controller. The controller is also sold separately.
