Breathe easy with MVHR: Revolutionise your property's air quality, energy efficiency, and comfort
Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) provides fresh filtered air into a building whilst retaining most of the energy that has already been used in heating the building. Heat Recovery Ventilation (HRV) is the solution to the ventilation needs of energy-efficient buildings. Properly fitted into a commercial setting, an HRV system provides a constant supply of fresh filtered air, maintaining the air quality whilst being practically imperceptible.
Benefits of MVHR:
Improved Air Quality - continously brings in fresh, filtered air into your home: MVHR systems employ filters to trap dust, allergens, pollen, and other airborne contaminants before they enter your living space creating a healthier living environment.
Enhanced Energy Efficiency- They're able to recover heat from outgoing exhaust air. During the winter, this heat can be used to pre-heat incoming fresh air, reducing the amount of energy required by your heating system. In the summer, some MVHR systems can also be used to cool incoming air using a process called passive cooling. In turn reducing hetaing costs and contibutes to a more sustainable property.
Optimal Indoor Climate Control - They provide balanced ventilation by both supplying fresh air and removing stale air. This helps to prevent excessive humidity buildup and condensation issues, which can lead to mold growth and other problems. This provides a more comoftable living environment.
Reduces noise pollution from outside- MVHR systems typically incorporate filters that can help to reduce noise pollution from outside traffic and other sources.
Lowers the risk of fire - By removing airborne pollutants, MVHR systems can help to lower the risk of fire by reducing the amount of combustible material in the air.
If you're looking for a way to improve the comfort, health, and sustainability of your home or property, then an MVHR system is a worthwhile investment.
How Does MVHR Work?
MVHR works quite simply by extracting the air from the polluted source within the building e.g. office, warehouse, production, canteen/kitchen, toilets, etc. The extracted air is taken through a central heat exchanger, where the heat is recovered into the supply air. This works both ways as if the air temperature inside the building is colder than the outside air temperature, then the cool air is maintained in the building.
