PIV with fan upgrades
PIV plus humidity-controlled extract fans in the kitchen and bathroom for the most stubborn condensation.
Loft-mounted PIV
The most common option for houses with a loft. Usually fitted in half a day.

Questions from Haywards Heath
Is the survey free in Haywards Heath?
For new installations on the UK mainland, yes. The survey is free and the quote that follows is fixed and in writing. Servicing, testing and repair visits are charged, and we confirm the cost before booking.
How much does PIV cost to run?
A standard PIV unit uses very little electricity, comparable to a low-energy light bulb on normal speed. A heated unit costs more in cold spells because the heater switches on when loft air is cold.
Will PIV make my house cold?
Most units temper or reduce the flow when the incoming air is cold, and a heated unit warms it. Placed correctly on the landing, the air spreads gently rather than blowing on anyone.
