How we approach MVHR servicing in Lancing
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.

Rules that apply in England

Questions from Lancing
Is the survey free in Lancing?
This is a charged visit because it is servicing, testing or repair work. We tell you the cost before booking. Surveys for new installations on the UK mainland are free.
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.
