Heating, Ventilation & Insulation Vectaire The Mini Eurocowl Vectaire’s Microbox 125/2DC was chosen to ventilate St Peter’s House and Admiral’s House in Kents Road, Torquay. This prestigious development converting two listed buildings into apartments needed discreet, but effective ventilation. The Microbox, provided this. The unit is slim (less than 184 mm deep) so is particularly suited for in-line installation where space is at a premium.

It has a variable choice of low (trickle), boost and purge speeds at installation with low noise levels and low running costs.
