How it Works

Designed for Performance, Comfort and Wellbeing.

Ariosa DOT combines advanced ventilation technology with Italian design to deliver healthier indoor environments without compromising aesthetics or comfort.

Continuous Fresh Air Ventilation

The system provides a constant supply of filtered outdoor air while simultaneously removing stale indoor air, ensuring healthier and more comfortable living spaces.

High-Efficiency Heat Recovery Core

At the heart of the unit is a high-performance exchanger that recovers thermal energy from outgoing air and transfers it to incoming fresh air.

  • Reduced energy consumption
  • Improved thermal comfort
  • Lower heating costs
  • Sustainable operation

The Ariosa DOT in Operation

Intelligent Ventilation and Heat Recovery

The Ariosa DOT is a dual-flow mechanical ventilation system designed to continuously renew indoor air while improving energy efficiency and occupant comfort.

Fresh external air is drawn through the unit through a dedicated intake duct and passes through a high-capacity filter, which removes smog, dust, pollen, and other unwanted substances before the air enters the room.

As it passes through the recovery unit, the heat from the internal higher-temperature air flow is transferred to the external lower-temperature air flow, thus improving the efficiency and sustainability of the room's air renewal system.

Continuous Extraction of Polluted Indoor Air

A second fan simultaneously extracts internal room air saturated with:

  • Excess moisture and humidity
  • Carbon dioxide (CO₂)
  • Volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
  • Airborne pollutants
  • Other unwanted contaminants

After passing through the filtration and heat exchange process, this exhaust air is safely expelled outside, helping to maintain a healthier indoor environment while supporting continuous air renewal.

Improved Comfort and Indoor Air Quality

By continuously supplying filtered fresh air and removing polluted indoor air, the Ariosa DOT helps create a healthier and more comfortable living environment. The balanced airflow system reduces the build-up of moisture, pollutants and stale air, while the heat recovery process minimises energy loss.

Acoustic Comfort by Design

Quiet, Efficient Ventilation

The Ariosa DOT has been engineered to deliver exceptional acoustic comfort while maintaining optimal ventilation performance. Through advanced aerodynamic design, airflow turbulence is minimised across all operating speeds, ensuring smooth, efficient air movement with minimal noise generation.

High-performance materials and carefully selected internal components work together to reduce sound transmission, allowing the unit to operate with remarkably low acoustic impact. The result is a healthier indoor environment without compromising comfort, making the Ariosa DOT suitable for bedrooms, living spaces, home offices, and other noise-sensitive environments.

Tested and Validated Performance

During development, the Ariosa DOT underwent extensive testing within Valsir's state-of-the-art R&D laboratories, achieving prestigious performance results validated by Europe's most prestigious and accredited international laboratories.

Night Mode for Enhanced Comfort

The Ariosa DOT represents the market's inaudible solution for quality living thanks to its dedicated night mode setting, designed to provide continuous air renewal while operating at extremely low sound levels. This specialised setting delivers effective ventilation with minimal disturbance, supporting restful sleep and maintaining indoor air quality around the clock.

Components

Fans

Fans

The electronic fans make it possible to regulate the intake and outlet airflows with maximum precision, in order to maintain the unit's efficiency unaltered under any conditions, without sacrificing on acoustic comfort.

Bypass

Bypass

The bypass function is electronically operated, automatically monitoring the indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity conditions in order to ensure maximum thermal comfort.

Recovery Unit

Recovery Unit

Available in the sensible or enthalpic version, this unit ensures excellent energy efficiency performance while at the same time limiting consumption.

Filters

Filters

The standard ISO Coarse and ISO ePM filters eliminate dust, pollen, smog, and many other potentially harmful substances, such as viruses, bacteria, allergens, spores, and particulates.

The Display

The Display

Ariosa DOT features a colour LCD touchscreen display, which can be remotely controlled and allows you to manage all the machine's functions and set daily and weekly operating programmes. It also allows you to connect the machine to the network via a WiFi module for control via a mobile app.
