The ACIN VentiFlow-mk2, with a measuring range of 10 to 100 m3/h (6 to 60 CFM), is the ideal instrument to quickly check and balance delicate domestic ventilation systems. The simple-to-operate device provides measurement results after 5 seconds and can be used straight out of the box with no loose parts. The unique low-resistance rectifier used in the product offers reliable and stable readings on both supply and extract air grids, irrespective of the system resistance and flow pattern. Even supply diffusers with a so-called clean sector and swirl diffusers can be measured with high accuracy.

What is the VentiFlow-mk2?
Why measure ventilation flow rates?
Ventilation is the process of removing stale polluted indoor air and replacing it with fresh air from outside. Ensuring that the ventilation system in a home is working as expected is incredibly important in any building and is included in Part F of the building regulations.
Ensure the system is working
- A well-functioning ventilation system is vital to removing air pollutants such as CO₂ and particulates as well as moisture and bacteria.
Commissioning
- Requirement F1(2) of the Building Regulations (Section 4 of Part F) stipulates that all fixed mechanical ventilation systems must be commissioned by testing.
Adjustments
- When commissioning a system all ventilation supply and extract points should be tested and adjusted to confirm that the system is performing as intended.
Balancing
- Continuous ventilation systems should be adjusted and balanced to ensure the designed air flow rates are being met in each room.
Who is the VentiFlow-mk2 designed for?
The VentiFlow-mk2 is ideal for anyone involved in ventilation testing.
