MVHR Heat Recovery Ventilation for Homeowners

MVHR - Heat Recovery Ventilation

MVHR stands for mechanical ventilation with heat recovery and is one of the most effective forms of ventilation for todays' modern home.

Wth the average family of 4 creating up to 24 pints of moisture per day inside their home, and the increasing focus on insulating our homes to reduce carbon emissions, a mechanical ventilation system is crucial to a healthy and comfortable living space.

A MVHR system extracts and supplies air to the home continuously, recovering and re-using heat that would have otherwise have been lost. It can help save £300.00 per year on heating bills and improve indoor air quality.

What's wrong with my MVHR system?

My unit and ducting is leaking

Condensation

This could be an issue with the condensate connection or ducting that is not insulated.

Without insulation, warm air can condense as it passes through ducting in a cold space - causing leaking

My unit is leaking

There's an increase in noise

It could be the motor

Excessive noise could be an indicator that a motor bearing has worn and needs replacing.

The noise can be loud, whirring, or rattling and will get worse over time.

My unit is noisy

It's stuck on/won't boost

Maybe a Failed PCB?

The PCB (the brains of the unit) is driving the system to work and may have an issue which is not allowing the unit to function correctly.

The PCB can be replace on most units.

My unit is stuck is boost

It's not clearing any air

Something is blocked

Your unit can quickly become clogged up with grease, dust, and moisture if not properly maintained.

This could be valves, motors or even the external grille. A service might be a good idea!
