Hybrid Ventilation: The Best of Both Worlds

Smarter Ventilation for Modern Buildings

For too long, natural ventilation has carried the stigma of being a “lesser” option compared to mechanical systems. The truth is the opposite: natural ventilation delivers higher airflow efficiency, lower operating costs, and reduced environmental impact when designed correctly.

With Airocle Hybrid Natural Ventilation, designers can rely on the superior performance of natural airflow day-to-day, and unlock the added flexibility of booster fans when conditions demand it.

This approach not only outperforms full mechanical systems, it does so at a fraction of the cost. You can see this in action in our Skylife Somersby Project, where natural airflow paired with booster fans delivered measurable performance and cost savings.
Performance you can count on

Natural airflow that outpaces mechanical

Airocle’s hybrid systems prove that natural ventilation isn’t the fallback — it’s the benchmark.

Our roof ventilators deliver more efficient, more consistent airflow than standard mechanical systems, without the constant power draw. The booster fan is there as an added tool, ready to step in when you need extra capacity.

Booster fans when you need them most

Hybrid design means you don’t pay for power you don’t need. During normal operation, natural ventilation carries the load.

But when conditions peak, like during night purge or extreme heat, booster fans can be activated to increase extraction without compromising the natural system’s efficiency or airflow path.
