MVHR servicing for St Andrews homes
Over a year or two the filters clog, the fans work harder, airflow at the valves drops and the house slowly goes back to condensation and stale air. It is common for a system to go years without a filter change after the builder hands over.
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.

Questions from St Andrews
What is the price of an MVHR service in St Andrews?
Guide prices for St Andrews use Scotland rates: MVHR service: filters, unit and heat exchanger clean, airflow check is typically £140 to £235 inc VAT per visit. We confirm a fixed price in writing before any work starts.
Do I need to be at home for the service?

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.
