Chimney sweep
Project Manager in Energy-efficient Building Renovation

After 10 years' experience in telecommunications, I decided to change careers and move into renewable energies.

First, I trained as a plumber/heating engineer, then as a project manager in building energy renovation (BTS level). I then went on to complete an in-depth training course as a Chimney Sweep (Titre Professionnel), followed by training in High-Power Photovoltaics (RGE) and Solar Water Heating (RGE). I spent a year and a half working for ActEco Energie and WELEM in Brest, first on building pathology analysis and energy diagnostics, then on the installation and maintenance of gas and wood/pellet heating systems, as well as photovoltaic installations.

Following these 4 years of experience, I decided to set up my own business in August 2022 in Saint-Servais, Côtes d'Armor.
I mainly provide maintenance services for wood and gas equipment.

I'm also a freelance fitter for MyFood, installing aquaponic greenhouses equipped with photovoltaic systems and pellet stoves. These multi-disciplinary projects enable me to put all my skills into practice.

Mechanical Insufflation Ventilation

Presentation

Comprehensive moisture treatment particularly suited to Brittany
For existing single-storey and two-storey homes up to 250m2. Combats humidity in all rooms from a single point. This system eliminates its effects on the house and its occupants (mold, condensation, bacteria, respiratory problems). Insufflation technology also provides effective, long-term treatment of radon-related problems.
A 100% autonomous system, it automatically manages its operating flow rates according to the season. It also regulates temperatures to optimize comfort. It limits capillary rise and improves respiratory comfort and sleep thanks to its overpressure action. It requires openings to the outside in wet rooms, such as bathrooms and washrooms, and vents on kitchen windows.

Suitable for renovation
This solution is suitable for renovation projects where the installation of a conventional extract unit is difficult or impossible.
The centralized system ( preferably in the attic) uses a single point of entry into the house at a diffuser which then acts on all the rooms in the house. The air thus distributed uses the house's leaks as air outlets.

Filtration and heating of incoming air
Provides healthy air, energy savings and optimum thermal comfort. The filter is oversized to allow spaced maintenance (1x/5 years) while providing efficient air filtration. Attic positioning and preheating coil ensure a blowing temperature always above 10ºC. Prevents draughts from window vents and limits the spread of outside noise.

Particularly suitable for wood and pellet heating
Reduces the risk of smoke and carbon monoxide backdrafting. Limits the risk of intoxication. Promotes thermal draft in installations and facilitates ignition of solid-fuel appliances such as wood and pellets.
