Ventilation system
A good ventilation system is essential for a healthy indoor climate. Whether it's your home, workshop, or garage, proper airflow helps remove moisture, odours, and pollutants, keeping the air fresh and comfortable. With the right combination, you can ensure efficient air circulation and prevent problems like mould and stale air.
Let the ventilation system do the work
Ventilation plays a key role in maintaining a comfortable and well-balanced indoor environment. Effective airflow does the following:
- Controls humidity, preventing condensation, dampness, and mould growth
- Removes stale air, odours, and airborne particles for a fresher space
- Regulates temperature, reducing excess heat and preventing stuffiness
- Protects materials and surfaces from moisture-related damage
A well-ventilated home stays fresh for longer, reducing the need for excessive heating or cooling. The right ventilation system helps maintain a comfortable indoor environment by improving airflow and reducing moisture buildup. Whether you're upgrading an existing system or installing a new one, effective ventilation makes a real difference in everyday comfort.
Upgrade your ventilation system with Biltema
At Biltema, we offer a wide selection of ventilation solutions designed for home use. Whether you're installing a new system or upgrading an existing one, our range includes everything you need for efficient airflow and better indoor comfort.
Our ventilation pipes and ducts come in different shapes and sizes to suit various ventilation systems. Choose from round or square ducts for standard installations, or opt for flat ducts if you need a space-saving solution in tighter areas. We also provide connecting pipes, making it easy to assemble a complete system with optimal airflow.
We also offer ventilation components in different materials so you can find the right balance between durability, flexibility, and performance. Whether you need plastic or metal ducts, sturdy fittings, or efficient filters, our range is built to be easy to install and compatible with most ventilation systems.
All our products are characterised by their ease of installation and compatibility with most ventilation systems. So, whatever your project, you can count on finding the right components with us.
Selecting the right ventilation pipes and ducts
Choosing the right ventilation components is essential for maintaining an efficient ventilation system. Whether upgrading a home setup or installing a commercial system, selecting suitable pipes and ducts ensures optimal airflow and performance.
1. Assess your ventilation system needs
Start by identifying the purpose of your ventilation system: kitchen, bathroom, or industrial space. Different environments require varying airflow rates and configurations. Determine the type of pollutants or moisture to be removed and calculate the required airflow in cubic metres per hour (m³/h) to guide your choice of duct size and type.
2. Choose the right duct material
The next step is choosing the right material. At Biltema, you’ll find ventilation systems made from both plastic and galvanized steel.
Plastic ducts are often the preferred choice for smaller ventilation solutions in homes. They are easy to work with and resistant to corrosion, making them particularly suitable for bathrooms, kitchens, and other areas where moist air is transported.
Galvanized steel, on the other hand, is a more robust option, ideal for larger installations and industrial environments. This material can withstand high temperatures and provides a more durable solution for ventilation systems.
3. Get the sizing and installation right
Proper sizing is important for efficient airflow. Larger diameters reduce resistance and improve performance. At Biltema, you'll find entire ventilation systems and components in several different sizes. Ensure all components are compatible with your existing ventilation system. For complex installations, professional fitting is recommended. Always follow building regulations and perform regular maintenance to keep the system running efficiently.
Everything you need for ventilation – from ducts to vents
A well-functioning ventilation system requires the right components, and at Biltema, you’ll find everything from ventilation ducts to wall and ceiling vents. Flexible ventilation hoses are great for installations where rigid pipes won’t fit, while vents ensure proper air distribution throughout your home.
Need better airflow in your bathroom? Our bathroom fans efficiently remove moisture and help prevent mould. We also offer various ventilation accessories to make installation easier and improve performance.
Whether upgrading an existing ventilation system or installing a new one, you’ll find everything you need at Biltema, ready for collection at your nearest store within 2 hours with our Pay & Collect.
FAQ
What is the purpose of the ventilation system?
A ventilation system helps maintain fresh air indoors by removing moisture, odours, and pollutants while bringing in clean air. It improves air quality, prevents mould, and regulates temperature, creating a healthier and more comfortable living environment. Proper ventilation is essential for both energy efficiency and indoor comfort.
Should I leave my ventilation system on all the time?
Yes, it's generally recommended to keep your ventilation system running continuously, especially in areas prone to moisture and stale air. Modern systems are designed for energy efficiency, providing constant airflow without high energy costs. If needed, you can adjust settings to reduce power usage while maintaining good air circulation.
What is the difference between airing out and a ventilation system?
Airing out means briefly opening windows to refresh the indoor air. A ventilation system is a controlled process, often using mechanical systems, that ensures continuous air circulation. While airing out provides a quick improvement, ventilation actively removes moisture and pollutants, maintaining a consistent and healthier indoor environment.
