We survey Airdrie homes for MVHR before quoting, because the duct routes decide the price more than the unit does.
Whether the property is in the middle of Airdrie or one of the villages around it, the process is the same: a look at the building, a written price, then fitting and testing on the agreed day.

MVHR for Airdrie homes
A single unit, usually in the loft, a utility cupboard or a garage, runs all the time at a low, quiet speed. Insulated ducts carry extract air from the wet rooms and supply air to the habitable rooms.
Summer bypass and boost controls
Bypass lets cooler night air in without heat recovery; humidity or switch boost for showers and cooking.
Retrofit in an occupied home
Ducts routed through the loft and down through cupboards or boxed corners. Most semis are done in 3 to 5 days.

Questions from Airdrie
Do you cover Airdrie and nearby?
Yes. We cover Airdrie and nearby places including Coatbridge, Mossend, Bellshill and Viewpark. Send your postcode and we will confirm.
How often does MVHR need servicing?
Filters usually need changing every 6 to 12 months, and a full service with a clean and airflow check once a year keeps the system efficient. Clogged filters are the most common reason MVHR stops working properly.
Can MVHR cool the house in summer?
MVHR is not air conditioning, but a summer bypass lets cooler night air in without warming it, which helps take the edge off hot rooms. For real cooling you would need a separate system.
