How we approach MVHR servicing in Eccles

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.

Annual service

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

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.

Rules that apply in England

Questions from Eccles

Do you cover Eccles and nearby?

Yes. We cover Eccles and nearby places including Swinton, Salford, Stretford and Urmston. Send your postcode and we will confirm.

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.

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.
