How we approach PIV in Liversedge
PIV works well in houses and flats with general condensation on windows and cold walls. It does not replace extract fans: kitchens and bathrooms still need their own extract to remove steam at source.
Heated PIV
A heater module tempers the incoming air in cold weather. Useful in homes where people feel draughts.
Wall-mounted PIV for flats
Draws air from outside through an outside wall. Suits flats and homes with no loft space.

Rules that apply in England

Questions from Liversedge
What area around Liversedge do you work in?
All of West Yorkshire. Near Liversedge that includes Heckmondwike, Cleckheaton, Mirfield and Batley.
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.
