How we approach MVHR in East Grinstead

MVHR works best in a home that is reasonably airtight: a new build, a deep retrofit with insulation and new windows, or a renovation where ceilings are coming down anyway. In a draughty older house it still ventilates well, but less of the heat-recovery benefit is felt because warm air escapes through gaps instead of the unit.

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 East Grinstead

How do I get a price for MVHR in East Grinstead?

How noisy is MVHR?

Correctly sized and balanced MVHR is very quiet on normal speed; most people stop noticing it within days. Noise problems usually come from undersized ducts or a unit running flat out, which is why we design the rates first.

Do I keep my trickle vents with MVHR?

No. Under Approved Document F, background ventilators should not be installed with a whole-home MVHR system, so we advise closing or removing them once the system is commissioned.
