What is MVHR and how does it work?
MVHR stands for Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery. It extracts stale air from your home, brings in filtered fresh air, and transfers heat from outgoing to incoming air to reduce energy loss.
Is MVHR only for new builds?
No. While it’s ideal for airtight homes, we can retrofit MVHR into existing properties with the right planning and ductwork.
Will it make my house warmer or colder?
MVHR maintains a steady, comfortable temperature while improving air quality—it doesn’t act like heating or cooling.
How energy-efficient is MVHR?
Very. It typically recovers up to 90% of the heat from outgoing air, reducing heating costs.
Is it noisy?
Not at all. Systems are installed with acoustic insulation and designed to run silently in the background.
