What the work involves
It is common for a system to go years without a filter change after the builder hands over. A service puts that right.
Rebalance and recommission
Every valve measured and set again to the design rates, with a new commissioning sheet. Useful after building work or if rooms feel stuffy.
Filter supply
The right filters for your unit, ready to change yourself between visits.

Rules that apply in England
In England, ventilation is covered by Part F of the Building Regulations and its guidance, Approved Document F (2021 edition). For homes, it sets minimum extract rates such as 15 litres a second for a bathroom and 30 or 60 for a kitchen, and expects mechanical systems to be airflow-tested.
Questions from Torquay
Do you cover Torquay and nearby?
Yes. We cover Torquay and nearby places including Cockington, Paignton, Brixham and Teignmouth. Send your postcode and we will confirm.
Do I need to be at home for the service?
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.
My new build MVHR has never been serviced. Is that a problem?
It is very common and usually fixable. Builders often hand over without explaining filter changes, so the first service often finds filters that are badly blocked. We clean everything and reset the airflows.
