Division
Design
The design services of Kamin Group Ltd. focus on the comprehensive modernization of building engineering systems for residential and small institutional buildings. Our two key areas of expertise are Chimney Height Extension and Heat Recovery Ventilation System Design.
We have over two decades of experience in chimney technology. Our scope of work also includes fresh air supply, air conditioning, energy optimization of heating and cooling systems, and the integrated design of mechanical systems.
Chimney Height Extension – Attic Conversion
A chimney height extension plan is not only a regulatory requirement but also the key to a successful project. The proper height of chimneys is essential for safe and compliant flue gas evacuation, especially when neighboring or newly added building sections exceed the outlet point of existing chimneys. In such cases, inadequate draft can lead to backflow of combustion gases or even life-threatening operational failures.
To prevent such problems, it is necessary to determine during the design phase what type of chimney height extension or modification is required. A technically sound plan not only ensures safe operation but also facilitates the permitting process, the acquisition of neighbor consents, and the smooth progress of construction. In the case of attic conversions, a chimney reconstruction plan is required even if the roof ridge height remains unchanged, since for the occupancy permit the renovation of all chimneys in the condominium is mandatory. With proper planning, valuable and usable space can be gained for the investment.
Our company prepares complete documentation with the involvement of an experienced designer, short lead times, and coordination with the authorized chimney sweeping service. This ensures that costs, timelines, and technical solutions can be planned in advance — avoiding unpleasant surprises. Design work is quoted individually, taking into account the project status and environmental parameters.
Heat Recovery Ventilation – The Standard Feature of Future Homes!
One of the cornerstones of modern homes is ensuring a continuous supply of fresh air — without heat loss.
In well-insulated buildings designed by architects, natural air exchange is no longer possible, which can lead to various health and structural problems. Therefore, the installation of a mechanical ventilation system is essential.
A heat recovery ventilation system not only makes indoor spaces more comfortable and healthier but is also indispensable from an energy efficiency perspective to meet today’s stringent requirements.
However, a heat recovery system is not a plug-and-play solution. Long-term, reliable operation requires careful, expert-level design. The installed system will only work efficiently if it is precisely tailored to the specific characteristics of the building.
A well-prepared plan ensures the proper air exchange rate and quiet operation. It also helps achieve energy performance standards and guarantees that the system will remain economical to operate in the long run.
Heating Modernization
Heating modernization is not a simple “equipment replacement,” but a complex technical process that requires precise planning tailored to the building’s characteristics and the residents’ needs. For both new constructions and renovation projects, today’s energy regulations and comfort expectations demand the use of modern, efficient, and environmentally friendly heating and cooling systems.
For energy certification, achieving a BB or higher energy rating, and for the installation of heat pump systems — whether in family homes or condominiums — detailed mechanical engineering design documentation is required. The National Building Code (TÉKA), OTSZ, and the relevant MEKH and MMK regulations all mandate the professional sizing and approval of building engineering systems.
Heat Pump
Air conditioning and ventilation systems are no longer considered luxuries — they are essential components of a building’s comfort and healthy operation, whether in residential or industrial environments. A properly sized and well-designed system ensures the right temperature, humidity, and fresh air levels while operating quietly and efficiently.
Improperly selected or positioned units can cause excessive noise, drafts, or uneven heat distribution, and their later modification often costs more than the equipment itself. Whether it’s split air conditioners in a family home or a VRF system in an industrial hall, the key to success lies in an HVAC and air conditioning plan tailored to the room functions and architectural characteristics.
Our company ensures that the system not only works properly but also provides long-term comfort and efficiency to meet the needs of those living or working in the space.
Air Conditioning and Ventilation
Don’t install it afterward — plan it ahead!
