How to keep your home healthy? Just like a human, a house needs to be free of bacteria, mold, and disease. A home begins to “get sick” when exposed to consistently high humidity and temperature. Mold forms in the structures, and bacteria start to grow. This not only harms the occupants but also causes construction materials to rot. Properly designed ventilation helps maintain the health of your home. But how can it be organized effectively? Founded in 1975 in Finland, VILPE is a leading developer and manufacturer of ventilation equipment and specialized roofing accessories. VILPE is committed to offering the best ventilation solutions for comprehensive building ventilation—from the foundation to the roof—continually developing energy-efficient and innovative products to meet the evolving needs of the construction industry. VILPE products ensure fresh indoor air, improve living conditions, support better health, and extend the lifespan of buildings.
Country of Origin – Finland VILPE offers a new solution for kitchen ventilation — connecting a kitchen hood to a roof fan. This system is not only quiet but also highly efficient. Even the most modern traditional kitchen hoods cannot provide the same level of comfort as the VILPE Silent Kitchen system. Quiet operation is just one of the many benefits — another key feature is its efficiency. Due to the vacuum created in the ventilation duct, the exhaust airflow is significantly higher compared to conventional hoods.

The VILPE Silent Kitchen set includes three components: 1. Kitchen Hood A wide range of models is available: built-in, wall-mounted, and island hoods. Options include modern, classic, and rustic designs. All hoods are fully compatible with VILPE fans. Control options include push-button, electronic, or touch controls. 2. VILPE Roof Fan The heart of the VILPE Silent Kitchen system is the roof-mounted VILPE fan. Its placement on the roof ensures quiet operation in the kitchen. The fan is known for its reliability, durability, resistance to mechanical damage, and performance in extreme weather conditions. 3. VILPE Roof Penetration Element A unique component that allows VILPE products to be mounted on virtually any type of roof. It ensures a watertight seal and vertical pipe installation through the roof. It is selected based on roofing material and pipe diameter. Available in two sizes: for 110–160 mm and 160–250 mm diameter pipes and fans.
Grated Snow Guard is the most effective barrier against falling snow and ice from the roof. Grated snow guards are especially necessary on the roofs of high-rise buildings located in populated areas, where even a small piece of falling ice can pose a serious risk to human life and health or cause damage to property.
The working principle of tubular snow guards is based on breaking up the snow layer that forms higher up on the roof slope. Under its own weight, the snow is divided into smaller sections, which are pushed through the gaps between the pipes toward the eaves. As the snow loses its density, it gradually slides off the roof in small portions or melts away. Tubular snow guards can be installed on all types of roofs, but they are especially well-suited for steep-pitched roofs and metal surfaces. On such roofs, snow masses tend to slide down due to low surface friction, creating significant load on the retention system.
