Condensation Reduction
Condensation is a common problem we here about time after time. In some cases, installing new double glazing can help reduce condensation. However, it is not down to faulty windows but is due to the atmospheric conditions in your home. Bearing this in mind we set out to find a real solution to the everyday problem condensation causes.
Firmfix now offers a positive input ventilation system called Nuaire which pumps fresh filtered air into your home or flat, removing and reducing smells, condensation and mould.
Recommended by most letting agents our Nuaire product can solve a lot of unwanted problems in your home.
Cure condensation dampness and remove allergens and pollutants from the home with the low- energy ventilation system, from the inventors of PIV. The Drimaster offers cost-effective, whole home ventilation for two and three story homes with lofts.
The Drimaster offers cost-effective ventilation for the whole property using the tried and tested Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) principle, where fresh, filtered air is introduced into the home at a continuous rate, encouraging movement of air from inside to outside. This process removes condensation, allergens such as dust mites, and the pollutants caused by cooking and cleaning from the air. The results are a fresh and healthy indoor environment in which condensation and mould cannot exist, and where indoor pollutants including harmful Radon gas are kept to a minimum – all great news for allergy sufferers.
The Drimaster is a low-energy whole home ventilation is easy to install and cheap to run. Fitted in the loft, out of sight and with no holes to knock through walls, the non-disruptive installation makes it an ideal solution for retro-fit projects.
Features & Benefits:
- Cures condensation dampness – PIV removes humidity from the air, preventing mould growth and controlling dust-mite allergens.
- Improves indoor air quality – indoor pollutants from cooking and cleaning are removed while outdoor pollutants including traffic fumes, pollen and Radon gas are kept out.
- Meets Regulations – meets Part F & L of Building Regulations as a low-energy ventilation strategy.
- Extremely low power consumption – costs around 1p per day.
- Easy installation and very low maintenance – filter clean or replacement every five years
- Fixed heat recovery – minimises loss of heat in the loft by recirculating the air, saving energy.
- System standby in summer months – when the loft temperature exceeds 23°C.
- Health benefits – clinically proven to help allergy and asthma sufferers.
- 5 year warranty – for peace of mind.
Technical Specifications
The Drimaster provides whole home ventilation using the Positive Input Ventilation principle. Essentially the concept is to introduce fresh, filtered air into the dwelling at a continuous rate, encouraging movement of air from inside to outside. To achieve this, the unit is mounted in the loft space, drawing air through the filters and inputting it, at ceiling level, into the property.
The Drimaster units are fitted with an internal temperature sensor. This sensor continuously monitors the temperature in the loft, boosting the air volume when the loft temperature is above a set level (heat recovery mode).
If the loft temperature becomes excessive the unit will switch to standby mode (no airflow). Once installed, the airflow can be set to suit the house size and, if required, the way it responds to the temperature changes within.
Applications
The Drimaster provides whole home ventilation for 2 and 3 storey homes with lofts. The unit is mounted in the loft-space, drawing air through the filters and inputting it, at ceiling level, into the property. The Drimaster units are fitted with an internal temperature sensor which boosts the air volume when the loft temperature rises above a set level (heat recovery mode).
Cure condensation dampness and remove allergens and pollutants from the home with the low-energy ventilation system, from the inventors of PIV. The Flatmaster offers a low-cost, whole home ventilation solution for homes without lofts.
Based on the popular and low-energy Positive Input Ventilation principle which Nuaire invented in 1972, the Flatmaster range has been specifically designed to ventilate homes without lofts. The system introduces air into the home at a continuous low rate, eliminating condensation dampness and forcing our indoor pollutants such as Radon gas and carbon monoxide. Allergens are kept to a minimum and outdoor pollutants such as pollen and traffic fumes are kept out. The results are a fresh and healthy indoor environment.
The aesthetically pleasing and compact unit is usually situated in a convenient location, such as a kitchen cupboard or hallway, and is ducted to a central location. Multi-positional spigots allow for quicker installation with only one external wall penetration.
Features & Benefits:
- Cures condensation dampness – PIV removes humidity from the air, preventing mould growth and controlling dust-mite allergens.
- Improves indoor air quality – indoor pollutants from cooking and cleaning are removed while outdoor pollutants including traffic fumes, pollen and Radon gas are kept out.
- Meets Regulations – meets Part F & L of Building Regulations as a low-energy ventilation strategy.
- Extremely low power consumption – as low as 3 watts.
- Easy installation and very low maintenance – filter clean or replacement every 18 months
- Optional heater facility – to provide additional heat to the incoming air if required.
- 5 year warranty – for peace of mind.
Technical Specifications
The unit is designed to take fresh air from outside, clean the air, warm it (if fitted with heater) and discharge it into the central hallway via a system of ducting supplied by the installer.
The dwelling internal air discharge grille is usually installed at high level in a central location within the hallway, although discharging the air down the length of the hallway (away from the front door) should also prove acceptable.
Unit performance may be enhanced if an existing heat source can warm the discharged air eg, by locating the discharge grille above a radiator.

Applications
The Flatmaster system has been specifically designed for homes without lofts. It can also be used to ventilate basements, cellars and other areas that would benefit from a continuous supply of fresh, filtered air.
The unit is designed to take fresh air from outside, filter the air, warm it (if fitted with a heater) and discharge it into the central hallway via a system of ducting. The unit is usually situated in a kitchen, airing cupboard or hallway, and is ducted to a central location. The interchangeable, multi-positional inlet/outlet spigots allow for quicker installation with only one external wall penetration.
