MVHR

What Is MVHR?

... and what does MVHR stand for?

MVHR stands for Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery — a whole-house system that:

• It pulls stale, humid air out of rooms like kitchens and bathrooms
• It captures the heat from that outgoing air using a heat exchanger
• It draws in fresh air from outside, filters it, and warms it up
• Then it gently distributes that warm, clean air around your home

The result?

A balanced ventilation system that keeps you warm in winter, cool in summer, and breathing easier all year round. It s a smart, whole-house ventilation system and an energy-saving alternative to traditional extractor fans or trickle vents - ideal for airtight, energy-conscious homes.

Who Is MVHR For?

MVHR helps solve all of these by providing fresh air circulation, humidity control, and improved indoor air quality (IAQ) - all without cracking a window.
