Advances in building construction and new requirements regarding energy efficiency, airtightness and comfort make it necessary to incorporate solutions that can offer greater protection against the most demanding environmental conditions.
In these applications, limiting air and water infiltration is particularly important to preserve indoor thermal conditions and protect the installation against rain, humidity, temperature changes and other environmental factors.
To meet these requirements, SODECA presents HATCH/LP, a smoke exhaust solution for roof installation featuring F400 certification, a compact design and C5 corrosion protection according to ISO 12944.
The integration of a motorised hatch keeps the unit protected when it is not operating, reducing air and water infiltration and thermal losses through the roof. In this way, HATCH/LP combines the performance required for smoke extraction with features related to energy efficiency and installation protection.
Improved airtightness and thermal protection
HATCH/LP solutions incorporate a motorised hatch that improves airtightness as well as thermal and acoustic insulation. Reducing infiltration helps maintain indoor thermal conditions and contributes to improving the energy efficiency of the installation.
HATCH/LP also features thermal insulation to reduce the risk of condensation and protect the installation against changes in temperature and humidity.
Designed for demanding environmental conditions
These solutions have been designed to withstand demanding environmental conditions, supporting snow loads up to SL1200 according to EN 12101-3, with an SL1000 snow load for model 125.
In addition, the units feature Magnelis® sheet metal casing and offer C5 corrosion resistance according to ISO 12944, providing durability in demanding environments.
Magnelis® is a metallic coating that is three times more resistant than galvanised steel, providing exceptional corrosion protection even in the most aggressive environments.
SODECA HATCH/LP units have a lower overall height compared to traditional configurations with a separate fan and damper, providing a more compact solution and facilitating installation and maintenance thanks to the front cable outlet, which provides easier access.

Advantages of roof-mounted extraction solutions with a motorised hatch
This compact roof solution with a motorised hatch improves the airtightness and protection of the installation while helping to preserve the building's indoor thermal conditions.
Its integration into the unit also facilitates installation and maintenance and meets current requirements for efficiency, safety and durability in roof installations.

In solutions such as HATCH/LP, this configuration combines rain protection, snow load resistance and corrosion protection to withstand the environmental conditions associated with roof installations.
