Minimise heat loss, reduce energy consumption and improve the building’s air quality.

A Mechanical Ventilation and Heat Recovery (MVHR) system extracts the stale humid air from bathrooms and kitchens in the same way as conventional mechanical ventilation but instead of dumping the warm air outside the air is moved through internal ducting to a central Heat Recovery Unit (HRU) located in the loft or cupboard. The HRU passes the outgoing air through the heat exchanger whilst simultaneously drawing fresh air from outside in the opposite direction. This process recovers up to 92% of the heat that would otherwise be lost whilst supplying fresh air in a controlled way throughout the building.

By extracting the damp air from bathrooms and kitchens condensation problems are reduced as well as mould growth and the build-up of pollutants. In addition the living environment is improved as windows do not need to be left open reducing noise, pollution and security issues.

Our ventilation systems use the latest semi-rigid duct technology removing the need for many of the fittings required in a rigid duct system. As this is smaller and more flexible it is an easier and faster installation that suits both new-build and refurbishment. By having less fittings and easy push fit joints air leakage is reduced and the single duct run to each room results in significantly less cross talk noise. Installation is up to 50% faster than conventional rigid duct systems especially in suspended floors.
