TYPES OF RESIDENTIAL ELEVATORS AND THEIR TOP FEATURES

by Residential Lifts Marketing
The main idea behind using any kind of elevator is the same, i.e. to simplify vertical travelling, especially for elderly people and those having mobility related issues.

They can be found in offices, commercial areas, homes and in fact everywhere. As far as those used in homes are concerned, they are entirely different from others and here in this post, let us go through some of them as well as their features.

Roped Hydraulic Residential Elevators -

According to the experts, one very important thing about this version of residential elevators is that they combine the advantages of hydraulic system as well as the roped system. The main base of this version is around the hydraulic pump and this pump is connected to a piston and also to a pulley. 

The piston works there because of being supported by a pedestal and this pedestal is connected to hoists with the help of a series of brackets. Then, there are a couple of steer cables or steel ropes that are anchored to the floor of the shaft. 

There are numerous advantages of this version and one is the very low residential elevator cost, followed by the fact that it does not require an adjoining machine closet. 

But yes, there would be a requirement of a dedicated space for setting up the machine, but another fact is that you can place the supporting machinery wherever it is most convenient.



Pneumatic Vacuum Elevators for the Home - 

  • The next very impressive version is given the name of PVE or Pneumatic Vacuum Elevators and experts say that this has been the newest addition in the league of residential elevators.

  • Those offering these solutions in very low residential elevator cost say that PVEs are really revolutionary because they don’t require any cable, chain, piston or any kind of counterweight or anything else for vertical movement.

  • They are known for gaining this vertical movement with the help of a hoist way and it is basically composed of a tube-shaped cab in a tube-shaped hoist way.

  • The Pneumatic Vacuum Elevator uses parts that fit perfectly together and according to the experts, this is very necessary as it will maintain precise atmospheric pressures above and below the cab. 

  • For lifting the cab, the mechanism acts by reducing the pressure above the cab is reduced and then, the cab rises to fill the void.

As far as descending movement is concerned, a control valve acts to reduce the pressure by releasing it. This in turns, creates a cushion of air beneath the cab and because of these types of actions, this version becomes one of the most energy-efficient residential elevators available at very low residential elevator cost.

Other than these two major types of residential elevators, some other names are there too that are very effective sand available in very low residential elevator cost.

One of them is the Winding Drum & Counterweight Chain Drive Home Elevator Systems while the next is Traction Drive Elevator Systems that are also known as an unmatched solution in terms of commercial elevators.
