Why has my MVHR system gone noisy?

Noise usually comes from clogged filters making the fans work harder, a fan bearing wearing out, or valves that have been closed down. A service and rebalance fixes most cases.

Someone needs to let us in and be there when we measure the valves, which means visiting every room. A service usually takes one to two hours.
