What the work involves
Flats without a loft use a wall-mounted unit that draws air from outside through a cored hole. PIV works well in houses and flats with general condensation on windows and cold walls.
Loft-mounted PIV
The most common option for houses with a loft. Usually fitted in half a day.
Heated PIV
A heater module tempers the incoming air in cold weather. Useful in homes where people feel draughts.
