The moulds guard klimagriff® helps protecting house and apartment from mould: Furthermore the moulds guard klimagriff® helps owner and resident optimizing aeration. That implies an energy saving of about 15 % with the moulds guard klimagriff®. Another plus: you can simply use your own window handle that you used before, so there is no need to worry about whether or not the new handle fits with the furniture. The moulds guard klimagriff® is a module which is simply to attach at the back of your window handle and thus it builds only an extension of the window handle. It fits nearly every synthetic or wooden window frame. Almost too simple to be true. The moulds guard klimagriff® helps making the apartment more comfortable. Air can absorb humidity only to a certain extent, thus the air must be freshened in closed rooms regularly. Humidity and mould can mostly be prevented due to right aeration. Thus it is reasonable to install a moulds guard klimagriff® in rooms with raised humidity levels, e.g. bathroom, kitchen, bedroom or other rooms that for example have an aquarium installed. As a result these rooms can simply be "vented dry". The moulds guard klimagriff® gives you aeration recommendations. Humidity aeration, which helps preventing mould, is therefore to distinguish from hygienic aeration, which simply upgrades the room climate and thus the performance of humans. Furthermore the moulds guard klimagriff® for mould prevention gives a signal in case the room is cooled down. And a long-term measurement and storage of room temperature data and relative humidity helps evaluating quicker the conditions on-site. Though there are some facts about mould emergence worth knowing: Even in "dry" rooms mould can emerge: e.g. around the windows or nearby thermal bridges since these are areas that have due to their construction the tendency to cool down faster or that are in general cooler compared to the surrounding. Why mould emerges then? Because though the air humidity in a room can be around 45%, at those very cold spots the air moisture can condense. Thus a cold corner in a room can quickly become a humid corner.

|
- 3 LEDs indicate: close window, heat or open
window
- Signal tone supports (can be turned-off)
- Sensor determines air temperature at windows
(generally coldest spot in the room), relative air
humidity and window position.
- Storage preserves all data for about 2 years and
provides those via a mini-usb-interface for
download.
|
- Software calculates with the determined data
aeration- and heating- recommendation; the
measuring data is corrected by means of the
room parameters (e.g. temperature in centre of
the room).
- Free klimagriff® - manager: evaluation software,
which can be also used for operation, is
provided for download.

At What Kind of Windows is the Moulds Guard Klimagriff Mountable?
|
A montage is possible on wooden and synthetic windows with turn-/tilt- fitting and a hole centre distance of 43 mm for the window- fitting (DIN 18267:2005-01). The window handle has to be mounted vertically (perpendicular).
The moulds guard klimagriff® is to install at one window per room. This window has to be able to open entirely (90°/ right angle), due to the fact that rush airing is the best way of venting and the moulds guard klimagriff® hast "to learn" due to its installation how far the window is opened. Thus the window has to be opened at least once entirely.
Ideally every room should have a moulds guard klimagriff® to preserve a good climate. But at least in every humidity loaded* room a klimagriff® should be installed on order to convey humidity. Why? Moulds can be problematic in the entire apartment, even if mould initially emerges only in a single room. If only the ventilation in that single room is optimized, the mould tends to wander into another room.
* Humidity loaded rooms are kitchen, bathroom as well as bedrooms or rooms, where e.g. an aquarium is installed.
|
At Which Windows a Montage Can be Difficult or Impossible?
|
Usually it is difficult to mount the moulds guard klimagriff® yourself at terrace doors that are lockable via PZ-gear. Here the moulds guard klimagriff® can be mounted by a professional. At rooflights, triangle- and trapeze-windows or wooden windows with a particular window profile as well as a lift-slide-, a slide-fold- or parallel-slide installation or at windows in general that don't at least open to a 90° angle, the moulds guard klimagriff® cannot give any correct recommendation for ventilation.

That is How
Easy the Moulds Guard Klimagriff® Functions
|
Tilt-ventilation
|
indicates, how long the tilt-ventilation may last, particularly important in winter. |
Rush-airing
|
indicates, how long the ventilation may last, so that no energy is wasted and you feel comforted. |
LCD display
|
green (close window), yellow (heat), red (open window) |
Position
|
The moulds guard klimagriff® recognizes immediately, whether the window is closed, tilted or entirely opened |
Signal
tone (can be turned off)
|
Through an additional signal tone the moulds guard klimagriff® indicates when to change something. |
Detect aeration processes
|
So you know how often the room has been vented today, which gives more security. |
Data storage
|
Data is stored for max. two years. |
Temperature and relative humidity
|
Measures temperature and relative humidity. |
Ventilation protocol
|
By means of the ventilation protocol all data is secured and attestable. |
Air & energy balance
|
Due to right aeration and heating about 15% of energy can be spared. |
