What the work involves

MVHR is often fitted and then forgotten. 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.

Filter supply

The right filters for your unit, ready to change yourself between visits.

Fault finding

Noisy fans, error codes, condensate leaks and boost controls that stopped working.

Annual service

Filters, exchanger and fan clean, drain check, controls and boost checked, airflow spot-checked at the valves.

Rules in England

English building work follows Approved Document F (2021 edition) for ventilation rates, installation and commissioning. 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 about MVHR servicing and filter changes in Gloucestershire

Which rules apply to ventilation in Gloucestershire?

In England, ventilation in new and altered homes is covered by Approved Document F of the Building Regulations. Landlords also have duties under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System, and workplaces must be ventilated under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992.

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.

Which towns in Gloucestershire do you cover?

All of Gloucestershire, including Cheltenham, Stroud, Kingswood, Mangotsfield and Yate. If your town is not listed, send the postcode and we will confirm.
