Ventilation solutions for building renovations
Systemair, a resourceful ventilation partner
Why building renovation?
From improving the health and well-being of occupants to lowering energy consumption, renovation offers a host of critical benefits for individuals, occupants, and society as a whole. In Europe, the ongoing EU Renovation Wave is partly driven by the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD).
Renovation is the key to increasing energy efficiency
Experts in Europe and other countries agree that renovating public and private buildings is the key to increasing energy efficiency in the sector and delivering on environmental and sustainability objectives.

Renovation wave – a golden opportunity
Taking Europe as an example, the EU Renovation Wave presents a golden opportunity for renovation companies since it will require cumulative investments of around EUR 1.2 trillion during 2024-30.
EPBD Directive
The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD), designed to boost the energy efficiency of buildings, was adopted by the European Parliament in March 2023. It was an important step in driving the EU Renovation Wave.
We will be your most efficient and helpful partner in mastering your ventilation renovation challenges.

Montabaur Castle, Germany
Modernising the ventilation systems of an ancient German castle
Systemair Geniox Air Handling Units were selected for the renovation of Montabaur Castle (built circa 959 AD) in Rhineland Palatinate, Germany.
The exceptional flexibility of the units due was a crucial factor for upgrading the HVAC systems in this historic listed building.
)
Mengeš Primary School, Slovenia
Delivering higher air quality to classrooms
Mengeš Primary School in Slovenia needed to improve the air quality in 10 recently flooded classrooms. A lack of mechanical ventilation was resulting in consistently poor air quality, especially in the chemistry rooms.
Systemair installed 10 Systemair Sense local ventilation units. These keep the fresh air flowing and have significantly improved classroom air quality.

One Portsoken Building, London, UK
Enhancing ventilation systems to align with BREEAM* standards
Systemair collaborated with Celsius Solutions Ltd, the Anslow Partnership, and developer Oktra on the refurbishment of a 1980s office block at One Portsoken Street. For the 230,000 square feet of office space, Systemair delivered solutions that complied with BREEAM standards, including Geniox AHUs and Topvex False Ceiling units.
*BREEAM is the world-leading sustainability assessment method for the built environment and infrastructure.

Nynäshamnsbostäder residential area, Stockholm, Sweden
Record-breaking upgrade of 1950s residential units
The Nynäsbostäder housing association in Nynäshamn, Sweden estimated that up to SEK 500,000 could be saved annually by upgrading 135 apartments built in the 1950s-1960s with modern, energy efficient HVAC solutions.
New systems were installed utilising Systemair Save Air Handling Units and were in operation four months ahead of schedule.
)
Beckstein Winegrowers, Germany
Upgrading the ventilation system of a cooperative
Systemair MUB EC Fans were chosen to retrofit the ventilation system at the Beckstein winegrowers’ cooperative in Germany.
An old axial belt-driven fan was replaced with two MUB units featuring high-quality EC technology. This boosted motor efficiency to over 90%. Energy savings were a key factor, with the projected 30% reduction achieved in a short period.

Nybrogatan 18, Stockholm, Sweden
Compact Topvex solution improves indoor climate in 1930s apartment building
In early 2023, the Nybroviken Property Association decided to replace the outdated natural duct ventilation system in its apartment building on Nybrogatan with a modern FTX system.
Collaborating with Systemair, HVAC consulting company Franska Bukten selected Topvex Air Handling Units with integrated smoke bypass due to their compact design and energy efficiency.

Fast, simple calculation of AHU LCC
Systemair Life Cycle Costs (LCC)
Systemair LCC is a hands-on online tool based on the acknowledged ASHRAE climate database and widely established calculation methods. It focuses largely on energy costs during an AHU’s use phase, which makes up the majority of an AHU’s LCC. Accessible from any device, the tool offers a number of valuable functions.
