Ventilation profiles

The Vallox ventilation unit has four ventilation profiles:

  • At home — Use this ventilation profile when the apartment is occupied.

    The Vallox ventilation unit has been configured by a specialist based on the ventilation plan. The At home profile changes the indoor air at the recommended rate, with complete replacement roughly once every two hours.

  • Away — Use this ventilation profile when the apartment is unoccupied, e.g. during a trip or other long absence.

    By default, the ventilation speed of the Away profile is 30% lower that the speed of the At home profile.

  • Boost — Use this profile to enhance ventilation, e.g. when there are more people than usual in the apartment. If carbon dioxide and/or humidity sensors have been installed, the ventilation unit will automatically provide sufficient ventilation.

    By default, the ventilation speed of the Boost profile is 30% higher that the speed of the At home profile.

  • Fireplace — Use this ventilation profile when, for example, you are making a fire in the fireplace. This profile is primarily used to create momentary overpressure in the apartment.

    Important

    Prolonged overpressure can result in damage to the structures of the building.
