Commercial ventilation, Tayside
Commercial heat recovery units in Tayside
Plate and rotary heat recovery units that cut the cost of fresh air, across Tayside.
- From £6,650 + VAT per unit
- Free survey
A commercial heat recovery unit supplies fresh air and extracts stale air through a heat exchanger, so the energy already spent heating or cooling the building is passed to the incoming air instead of being thrown away. It is the standard way to ventilate offices, schools, gyms and clinics efficiently.
Tayside has every kind of building, from old terraces to new estates and business parks, and every job is designed around the building in front of us, not a standard kit.

What the work involves
Units use plate exchangers (no mixing of air streams) or rotary wheels (higher efficiency, small transfer of moisture). The right choice depends on the use: a gym or swimming area has very different moisture loads to an office. We size units to the building's occupancy and fresh-air needs, plan the duct connections and controls, and commission the system so the design airflows are actually achieved.

Extract-only systems upgraded to balanced heat recovery.
Ceiling-void units
Compact horizontal units for offices and shops.

Larger units for schools, gyms and halls.
