WindowMaster system controls natural ventilation in building on exposed coast
Automatic control of windows in a new building of the Scottish Association of Marine Science on a very exposed site on the coast at Dunstaffnage to the north of Oban is provided by a WindowMaster NV Comfort control system. This £6 million development provides facilities for an additional 150 students of marine science at the Scottish Marine Institute. The NV Comfort system was selected to deliver optimal indoor climate through consistent pure natural ventilation and significantly reduce CO2 emissions by saving energy.
This programmable and intelligent system automatically ensures that windows are controlled to create and maintain the desired internal air temperature and to close them if its starts to rain or the wind is too strong.
NV Comfort is designed for small and medium-sized buildings. It is based on NV Advance, but with fewer features so that is suited to smaller projects with a limited number of zones. The system can be retrofitted on many existing windows as well as new buildings.
