A class apart

Domus Ventilation rigid ducting has been installed at a new luxury aparthotel in one of York’s most architecturally renowned streets, Micklegate, as part of the mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR) system installed throughout the new development.

Situated within
York’s central historic
core conservation
area, Micklegate
has been designed
with a contemporary
interpretation of the medieval streetscape. A new addition to the Supercity Aparthotel portfolio, it features 46 beautifully designed apartment suites designed for luxury, practicality and comfort, along with a ground floor restaurant and bar.

The MVHR system in place extracts stale air and transfers the heat from it to the fresh air drawn into the building. But an MVHR can only perform to its best ability when paired with suitable, quality ducting. Domus Ventilation ducting has exacting tolerances and connects together for minimal air and moisture loss and maximum system efficiency.

Domus 204x60 Rigid Duct and fittings have been used at the new Micklegate aparthotel throughout, along with Domus sound attenuators. The latter absorbs sound over a range of audible frequencies travelling through ductwork, such as the MVHR fan, external traffic noise or room-to-room-cross talk, making it an ideal addition in a hotel.
