Friday Feathered Friend

Something a bit different this week. Louise Thomas features regularly on Neighbourly but it appears she is not the only bird lover in the family.
"This beautiful drawing was a present from my lovely daughter, Caitlin, for my birthday. It's a portrait of a chap who frequents a large tree at the back of our neighbour's section - it borders our section at the back so he is often peering into our yard - this is the view we normally have of him. I've always valued the handcrafted gifts my children give me - looking at them in chronological order is like viewing the ascent of man. This one's going straight to the trophy room. Kererū/wood pigeon (Hemiphaga novaeseelandiae)."

Hi Neighbors,

Ethos Energy is proud to be leading the way in fresh air ventilation for domestic, commercial and education facilities using Mitsubishi Electric Balanced Pressure Lossnay Heat Recovery Ventilation Systems.

The 4 Functions of the Lossnay Core

The Balanced Pressure Lossnay Heat Recovery Ventilation System removes stale, dirty air and draws in fresh air from outside. Lossnay also recovers heat energy from the air being transferred to pre-warm (or pre-cool) the fresh air being drawn into your home. Lossnay is ideal for small to large sized homes between 52m2 and 400m2.

The stale air extracted from your home is Return Air (RA). Return Air can contain high levels of CO2, odours and other pollutants. This Return Air stream also contains heat energy that Lossnay can recover, which is not the case with positive pressure ventilation systems.

As the stale Return Air is removed, the Lossnay Core ‘recovers’ the useful heat energy from it. The air is then exhausted (EA) outside along with the unwanted pollutants.

Outdoor Air (OA) is introduced to provide fresh air. It is first filtered, then passed through the Lossnay Core. This allows it be pre-heated in winter (or pre-cooled in summer) using the energy recovered from the Return Air.

Supply Air (SA) then enters your house as fresh pre-heated or pre-cooled air.
