Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR)
Advanced Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) systems that provide continuous fresh air circulation while recovering thermal energy that would otherwise be lost. These intelligent ventilation solutions are particularly essential for modern airtight construction methods, including our Bentley Mills Eco Builds, ensuring optimal indoor air quality while maintaining exceptional energy efficiency.
The Perfect Partner for Airtight Construction
Our MVHR systems are specifically designed to complement the superior airtightness of modern building techniques:
• Essential for Modern Buildings: Vital technology for properties built to high airtightness standards
• Perfect for Bentley Mills Eco Builds: Ideally suited to our SIPs construction methods that create exceptionally sealed structures
• Retrofit Solutions: Specialised systems for upgrading existing properties that have been improved with enhanced insulation and airtightness measures
• Balanced Airflow: Controlled air exchange that prevents the negative effects of excessive airtightness
• Regulatory Compliance: Helps meet Building Regulations requirements for ventilation in highly-sealed buildings
Comprehensive Health Benefits
Our MVHR systems create healthier indoor environments:
• Continuous Fresh Air: Constant supply of filtered outdoor air throughout your property
• Pollutant Removal: Extraction of indoor air contaminants, cooking odours, and excess moisture
• Allergen Reduction: Filtration of incoming air to remove pollen, dust and other allergens
• Condensation Prevention: Elimination of damp and mould issues through controlled humidity
• Radon Management: Mitigation of radon gas accumulation in affected areas
• VOC Extraction: Removal of volatile organic compounds from furnishings and building materials
Energy Efficiency Advantages
MVHR technology delivers significant energy performance improvements:
• Heat Recovery Efficiency: Up to 95% of thermal energy recovered from extracted air
• Reduced Heating Costs: Significant savings on space heating requirements
• Summer Bypass Functionality: Automatic adjustment during warmer periods to prevent overheating
• Consistent Temperatures: Even distribution of warmth throughout the property
• Complementary Technology: Works harmoniously with air source heat pumps and other renewable systems
• Low Operating Costs: Energy-efficient EC/DC motors with minimal power consumption
