Renovated house, plus three steps in energy label
Long, narrow house with an extension and a thorough renovation, including new glazing and insulation of single-brick walls. The house is detached on one long side.
The challenge
Due to the narrow layout and the thickening of the entire side wall with timber framing and insulation material, finished with sleek plasterwork, there was no space for visible pipes or a large unit in the living area. The solution therefore had to be compact and visually understated.
The solution
A Semi In-the-Wall solution was chosen, which seamlessly matches the sleek interior and visually fits well next to a window of similar height. By creating a custom opening in the timber frame, an additional frame was not necessary, saving both costs and installation time. Placing it halfway along the long, narrow space also ensures an even supply of fresh air to both ends of the house.

“During the renovation of 125 homes in Goor, the Fresh-R systems proved their value: a quick, minimally invasive installation, a healthier indoor climate for residents, and a clear energy label improvement that contributes to sustainable, future-proof homes.”

This Fresh-r can be partially built into the wall. Ideal for a shallow cavity or when a secondary insulation wall is used.
A mold-free, healthy, and comfortable home. Plenty of ventilation volume and heat recovery with a modest appearance; protrudes only 6 cm from the wall.
The house is sealed airtight and the thin wall gets an extra layer with insulation. And in that wall, you install the Fresh-r, which provides fresh air without energy loss. If desired, you can also extract air from another room via a duct.
