MVHR servicing and filter changes in Nottinghamshire

Many Nottinghamshire new builds have MVHR in the loft that nobody told the owners how to look after.

Nottinghamshire has every kind of building, from old terraces to new estates and business parks, and every job is designed around the building in front of us, not a standard kit.

How we do it

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. A service puts that right.

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
