The Monodraught Heat Harvester, which looks and operates like a mini jet engine, is suspended just below the roof level of a building to recycle wasted hot air from the heating system that has risen to the underside of the roof.
The Heat Harvester sucks in the wasted heat and blasts it back down to floor level.
The popular system for use on ceiling up to eight metres above floor level uses only a 35W motor and results in running costs of just 50p per week, which means Heat Harvester can reduce wintertime heating bills by at least 30% - all of it saved from heat that will be wasted if you don't act.
Taking into account capital and installation costs, the payback period is normally less than three years.
Within a maximum of seven days from installation, Heat harvester is guaranteed to achieve temperature stabilisation within 1degC between floor and ceiling; and if this, and a substantial reduction in heating costs, is not achieved within 28 days, Monodraught will refund your money.
The three-model range covers internal floor to ceiling heights from five to twelve metres.
Following a free survey to detect the temperature difference between floor and ceiling, Monodraught engineers will recommend the optimum position for the Heat Harvester to meet your heating requirements.
With no special fixings or engineering required to install it, installation in new and old buildings couldn't be easier. Request a free brochure from Monodraught ...
