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. We work on most makes of MVHR unit and can supply filters for future changes, so you can do the in-between swaps yourself if you would rather.
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.

Questions about MVHR servicing and filter changes in the Isle of Wight
Is the survey free in the Isle of Wight?
Visits here are by arrangement. Because of the ferry or long travel involved, we quote travel separately and in writing before you commit, and we can often combine visits to keep the cost down.
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.
Which rules apply to ventilation in the Isle of Wight?
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.
