Ventilation in Oxford

Damp walls, steamed-up windows, a noisy fan or a kitchen canopy that drips grease: each of these has a cause we can measure and a fix we can price before any work starts in Oxford.

In many Oxford homes the first step is better extraction in the kitchen and bathroom. If the windows still stream after that, a PIV unit or continuous fans usually finish the job.

For businesses in Oxford we cover office and shop ventilation, commercial kitchen extraction, duct cleaning to TR19 and planned servicing of air handling units.
