How we do it
For new dwellings in England, Approved Document F sets whole-home ventilation rates and requires mechanical systems to be commissioned and the results given to building control. Extensions and loft conversions have their own triggers: a new wet room needs extract, a new habitable room needs background ventilation or a connection to the ducted system, and energy-efficiency work can mean the existing home needs more ventilation too. We work for self-builders, small developers, builders and architects.
MVHR for new builds
Design, first fix, second fix and commissioning for whole-home heat recovery.
MEV or dMEV
Continuous extract systems where MVHR is not specified.
Extensions and lofts
Extract for new bathrooms and kitchens, background ventilation for new rooms.
