Energy loss through open lift shafts
If a lift shaft has a permanent opening, it results in continuous energy loss. Due to constant ventilation, conditioned air, whether it is heated or cooled, escapes through the shaft permanently.

certified lift shaft ventilation and ventilation flaps
Energy savings of up to 7,5 %
Energy loss due to the chimney effect is a well-known problem in elevator shafts. Heating and air conditioning systems often work in vain while valuable energy escapes through the opening in the shaft head.
BlueKit provides the solution: The opening required by EN 81-20 is closed by a flap that opens only when needed. This keeps the temperature inside the building constant and reduces energy costs by up to 7,5 % per year.
Measure energy losses in your building
A simple solution for energy-related problems
The lift shaft may be an invisible area, but its impact on energy efficiency is impossible to ignore. Installing a ventilation system in the lift shaft can significantly improve the indoor climate and safety in the building. In many existing buildings, power loss is not only reflected in the energy bill. Its effects are also clearly noticeable in everyday life.
That is why it is important to include the lift shaft in the planning and maintenance of building optimisations. You are wondering where exactly energy loss is noticeable? Here are some typical challanges that BlueKit counteracts:
Meeting Standards with Confidence
BlueKit seamlessly combines energy efficiency and safety while ensuring full compliance with your national regulations. Lift shaft ventilation is subject to a range of standards, typically grouped into three core areas: safety, energy performance and product conformity.
Safety regulations ensure that smoke and heat extraction systems operate reliably in the event of a fire. This protects occupants and enables fast, effective ventilation.
Energy efficiency standards target the reduction of energy loss caused by uncontrolled shaft openings, helping to lower operating costs and reduce the building’s carbon footprint.
Conformity requirements ensure that all components meet technical standards and integrate smoothly into innovative building concepts.
With BlueKit, you can be confident that every solution supports regulatory compliance while delivering reliable, energy-efficient building performance.
