LINE valves come first in the European Product Design Award competition

Our contribution to Nordic design has been recognized globally since LINE valves received a gold medal for the best HVAC product in the design competition. The European Product Design Award™ rewards international product and industrial designers. The competition’s international jury evaluates the design based on innovation, aesthetics, functionality, durability, and usefulness.

The collection of VIVA wall diffusers received an honorable mention in 2021, and LINE valves are now the second innovation to reach such recognition in the ventilation field at the European Product Design Award competition.

LINE is a stylish and advanced valve for residential premises. The collection has been developed in collaboration with industrial design and interior design professionals and Climecon’s ventilation experts. Minna Haapakoski, a distinguished design professional and interior designer who has been providing interior design services for private and public spaces for 15 years, was involved in the product development project of our LINE collection.

The starting point for the cooperation was to combine interior design and ventilation with stylish valves. With the LINE collection, products’ streamlined graphic shapes and the materials seen in ventilation for the first time offer architects, interior designers, and those building and renovating their own houses extensive opportunities to finish an interior decor with valves. Minimalistic shapes and classic color options are timeless and versatile in interior design.

Manage life cycle costs effectively – energy-saving smart ventilation

The costs of a construction project do not end when the building site is completed. The real expenses accumulate over the entire lifecycle of the building: from energy use, maintenance, and the lifespan of the systems. When new systems are put out to tender, the purchase price alone does not reveal the total cost of the investment. The Life Cycle Costs show which solution is truly sensible both economically and environmentally. When solutions are designed to be long-lasting and energy-efficient, the building consumes less energy, emissions decrease, and indoor air quality remains high year after year.

Importance of accurate adjustment in air terminal devices

Unbalanced ventilation system is not energy efficient and often leads to indoor air problems. When the devices and the airflow rates are dimensioned correctly, just the right amount of air goes to the right place – not too little nor too much. In this way, the entire ventilation system works as planned. A properly adjusted ventilation system is energy efficient, air distribution is controlled, even and quiet.
