According to alarming WHO figures, by 2050 half the world’s population will be allergic to pollen. Pollen allergies are ranked as the fourth most common ailment in the world by the WHO, affecting quality of life and absenteeism from school and work. It is therefore essential to take steps to protect yourself.
An effective solution to prevent pollen from entering the home
Unlike ordinary extract unit ventilation systems, the VMI draws in outside air at a single point, filters it to eliminate pollutants such as fine particles and pollen, then distributes it to several points from which the air circulates through the living rooms and wet rooms before escaping naturally through the air vents.
Thanks to its special pollen filter, VMI technology stops 98% of pollen and particles larger than 10 µm (0.01 mm), so relieving your pollen allergies.
