MONODRAUGHT WINDCATCHER SYSTEM

Monodraught Windcatcher system has proved to be the most effective method of providing natural ventilation to any commercial building, by encapsulating the prevailing wind from any direction. Clean, fresh air, relatively free from contamination or traffic pollution, is entrained at roof level and is carried down to the rooms below through a controlled damper arrangement. The ventilation effect is similar to displacement ventilation. Night time cooling is achieved without compromising the security of the building. Warm state air is exhausted by the passive stack quadrants of the Monodraught system and replaced by cool fresh air taken in from roof level.

This Windcatcher arrangement, pioneered by Monodraught, is now widely recognised as the most reliable and effective means of harnessing the wind's potential as a renewable energy source. Initial capital costs are often less than half the cost of air conditioning and there are no running or energy costs.
