Introduction to Lossnay Wi-Fi Control
Fresh air ventilation has evolved dramatically with the introduction of smart technology. Mitsubishi Electric's Lossnay Wi-Fi Control system represents a significant advancement in home ventilation, combining energy-efficient heat recovery with intelligent monitoring and control capabilities.
The Lossnay Wi-Fi Control system makes the invisible benefits of heat recovery ventilation visible, allowing homeowners to see exactly how their system is improving air quality while saving energy. This comprehensive guide explores all aspects of this innovative technology.
What is Lossnay Heat Recovery Ventilation?
Lossnay is Mitsubishi Electric's advanced heat recovery ventilation system that brings fresh, filtered air into your home while extracting stale air. The unique Lossnay Core technology recovers up to 92% of the heat energy from outgoing air, using it to pre-warm or pre-cool incoming fresh air.
Key Benefits of Heat Recovery
Energy efficiency is the primary advantage, as the system reduces heating and cooling costs by recovering waste heat that would otherwise be lost. The continuous supply of filtered outdoor air ensures fresh air supply throughout your home, while moisture management maintains healthy humidity levels that prevent condensation and mould growth.
Air quality improvements come from the system's ability to remove stale air and indoor pollutants, replacing them with fresh, filtered outdoor air. This creates a healthier indoor environment that supports better sleep, concentration, and overall well-being.
Wi-Fi Control Features and Capabilities
Real-Time Heat Recovery Monitoring
The Wi-Fi Control app displays live data showing exactly how much energy your Lossnay system is recovering. You can see the percentage of heat recovered (up to 92% efficiency), the temperature difference between incoming and outgoing air, the pre-warming or pre-cooling degrees achieved, and energy savings in real-time.
This visibility transforms heat recovery from an abstract concept into tangible, measurable benefits that you can track throughout the day and across seasons. The real-time data helps you understand exactly how your investment in ventilation technology is paying off through reduced energy consumption.
Pre-Warming in Winter
During cold weather, the app shows how many degrees the Lossnay Core pre-warms incoming fresh air. For example, when the outside temperature is 5°C, the system might achieve 14.7°C of pre-warming, resulting in supply air temperature of 19.7°C. This means additional heating is required for only 1.3°C to reach a comfortable 21°C.
This dramatic reduction in heating load translates directly into energy savings, as your heating system only needs to provide a small temperature boost rather than heating outdoor air from 5°C to 21°C—a difference of 16°C versus just 1.3°C.
Pre-Cooling in Summer
In hot weather, the system works in reverse to pre-cool incoming air. When the outside temperature reaches 28°C, the system might achieve 6.4°C of pre-cooling, resulting in supply air temperature of 21.6°C. Additional cooling is then required for only 0.6°C to reach a comfortable 21°C.
This pre-cooling capability significantly reduces the load on your air conditioning system, providing substantial energy savings during the hottest parts of summer when cooling costs are typically at their highest.
Automatic Free Cooling Mode
One of the most innovative features is the Automatic Free Cooling mode, which activates when outdoor temperatures are cooler than indoor temperatures. The system automatically bypasses the Lossnay Core when beneficial, introducing cooler outdoor air directly into your home.
This intelligent operation reduces indoor temperatures naturally without any mechanical cooling, minimizing reliance on air conditioning during transitional seasons and cool evenings. The system recognizes when heat recovery would actually work against your comfort goals and switches to direct cooling mode instead.
Free Cooling Example
When outdoor temperature drops to 16°C and indoor temperature is 26°C, the system can reduce indoor temperature by up to 10°C using only fresh air circulation. This natural cooling approach provides significant energy savings while maintaining excellent indoor air quality through continuous fresh air supply.
