Positive Pressure UnitsPositive pressure units are designed to eliminate moisture from the home by a
constant circulation of gently pressurised, clean air. Installed in either the loft of
a house or a hallway cupboard in a flat, the gentle pressurisation of the property
expels any stale, humid air through natural ventilation points which are present
in even the most insulated buildings.
Running costs: Both the units described below are rated at 7 watt slow and
14 watt fast. Assuming electricity costs of 12 pence per unit, and that the units
might be used for an average of one hour per day, running costs would equate
to just 3 pence per day/21 pence per week.
TRITON PPU LOFT
Loft mounted model for installation in properties with lofts. Low wattage with
2-speed manually operated switch. Extract speed 55 litres/second on fast
speed or 44 litres/second on slow speed. Noise level (at full speed) is just
25dBA.
Up to four humidity sensors can be fitted around the home all connected back
to the main unit to ensure total control. The air is delivered to the property
through a centrally located inlet grille on the landing or hallway ceiling.
TRITON PPU FLAT
Cupboard mounted model for properties without lofts. Low wattage with 2-speed
manually operated switch. Extract speed 55 litres/second on fast speed or 44
litres/second on slow speed. Noise level (at full speed) is just 20dBA.
The Triton PPU Flat can be connected to humidity sensors as described above.
Air is delivered to the property through a wall grille.
Construction The Triton PPU Loft is made from leather coated steel for strength, durability and finish. The Triton
PPU Flat is made from high strength plastic.
Electrical 220-230V ~ A.C. 50Hz Single phase consuming 30 watts max for both units. These units require
an earth. All wiring must comply with current IEE regulations. A double pole isolating switch, having
a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles, must be used with a 3 amp fuse fitted.
Motor Single phase induction motor with pre-oiled ball-bearings fitted for a long maintenance free life and
protected by a thermal fuse.
Guarantee Two year no quibble guarantee.
Installation The fans are designed to be loft or cupboard mounted. The inlet grille must be mounted at
least 1m from any smoke detectors but full installation and operating instructions are provided
with each unit.
Performance Both units supply rate of 44 litres/sec on slow speed and 55 litres/sec on fast.
Fan Speed 2400 r.p.m.
Sound Volume 25.0 dBA Maximum operating temperature 40°C.

About TritonThe company holds British Board of Agrement approvals
and is a BS EN ISO 9001 Quality Assured Company. Triton
was represented on the technical committee responsible
for drafting British Standard BS 8102 (2009) – the Code
of Practice for protection of below ground structures
against water from the ground – and supplies systems and
products to meet the requirements of all three methods of
waterproofing as defined by the Standard.
Triton also supplies associated products including
anti-condensation products, ground gas barriers, flood
resilience and remediation systems, cavity wall ties, damp
proofing and timber preservation systems.
To support architects, surveyors and contractors,
a full programme of training courses has been created
including RIBA approved CPD seminars on basement
waterproofing and green roof construction. More details

Anti-Condensation ProductsCondensation is the most common cause of dampness in
buildings and affects properties of all types and ages. In
particular it is directly associated with black mould growth.
Triton offers a comprehensive range of products to control
condensation including passive air vents, extractor fans,
heat recovery ventilators and positive pressure units.
This brochure gives an overview of all the anti-
condensation products in Triton’s range, but more detailed
information about each product, as well as other general
preventative measures which can be taken, is available at
tritonsystems.co.uk
EFFECTS OF CONDENSATION
Black mould growth is often the first visible sign of
condensation, usually present on decorative surfaces
such as wallpaper. The mould and its spores also cause
a musty odour and often give rise to respiratory health
problems. When condensation occurs in roof spaces or
sub floor areas, timbers in those areas can become damp
and susceptible to dry or wet rot.
It should be noted that black mould can only flourish on
the pure water associated with condensation – therefore it
is not an indication of rising damp.

be used to wash down the surface using a sponge, scrubbing brush or cloth.
Allow to dry thoroughly, applying a second wash to badly soiled areas.
Drying Time: 1-4 hours normally.
Practical Coverage: 6-8m²/litre when diluted, depending on the porosity and
roughness of the surface.

coats of Anti-Mould Emulsion using a brush or roller, allowing sufficient drying
time between coats.
Coverage: 10-12m²/litre but an extra allowance should be made for rough or
porous surfaces.
Drying Time: Touch dry in one hour and re-coatable after 2-4 hours.

TRITON ULTROVENT
n Quick and easy to install
n No ongoing costs
A range of passive ventilation units (airbrick cavity liner and core drill unit) that
incorporate triple action filters and specially designed thermal cores for minimal
heat loss. Extension kits are available to suit all wall thicknesses.
Triton Ultrovent units are designed to ventilate bedrooms and living rooms where
the constant background ventilation they provide allows water vapour to escape.
One air brick ventilator is usually sufficient for a singe room of up to 20m²
floor area, alternatively two core drill ventilators can be installed. Each unit is
supplied with positioning and installation instructions.
