What Is A Roof Mounted Ventilator?
Roof mounted vents are systems designed to extract stale air from a vehicle, along with heat, condensation and odours, replacing it with fresh air. They work while the vehicle is in motion and the windows are closed, ensuring a good oxygen supply inside the vehicle. By extracting hot air, they reduce the temperature inside the vehicle, making it more comfortable to operate and protecting goods in transit.
What Vehicles Can Have A Roof Mounted Ventilator Installed?
Roof mounted vents are extremely versatile and can be used on a wide range of vehicles in various applications. Vehicles that can benefit from roof mounted ventilation can include:
- 4x4s
- Animal trailers
- Passenger vehicles, including buses and coaches
- Commercial or delivery vans
- Any vehicle known to carry items with hazardous fumes or chemicals
- Vehicles transporting dogs and other pets
- Emergency vehicles
- Hore boxes
- Caravans, motorhomes and recreational vehicles (RVs)
- Catering vehicles
- And more
Benefits Of Roof Mounted Ventilators
In vehicles, roof mounted vents offer many advantages, including:
- Safety: Roof mounted ventilators extract fumes, stale air and gases. When transporting hazardous goods, gas, flammable liquids, chemicals and such, they can help ensure the health and safety of the driver and passengers.
- Condensation: Removing damp air before it can touch a surface and become condensation is especially helpful, particularly in situations where vehicles are parked with wet clothes, equipment or other items inside. Roof mounted vents can reduce the amount of condensation and protect the inside of the vehicle (as well as its contents and passengers) from mould and spores.
- Heat: When the air inside a vehicle becomes excessively hot, it becomes uncomfortable for passengers and damages the vehicle’s contents. With roof mounted ventilators, hot air is extracted and replaced with cool, fresh air, creating a more comfortable environment and protecting contents such as equipment, perishable foods, etc.
- Regulations: In many areas, proper ventilation of a vehicle is necessary by law. Roof mounted vents can ensure your vehicles comply with relevant legislation and safety regulations.
