Monodraught has installed its Windcatcher natural ventilation and balanced flue systems in a Visitor Centre at the Wat Tyler Country Park in Essex.

Each of the systems feature bespoke capping details, designed in close cooperation with Laurie Wood Architects.

The structure and design of the building includes a number of elements that will minimise the building's environmental impact, including the four large Monodraught systems that are located on each apex of the roof.

The two 1,200mm2, 1550mm high Windcatcher systems that provide energy-free natural ventilation to the centre's Activity Hall and Exhibition Hall.

They are equipped with Monodraught automatic temperature controls which allow programming for night time cooling to deliver cool air that purges the spaces below, leaving the interior feeling fresh and clean for the following morning.
