Ventilation

We can supply and install home ventilation systems to move air into your house and can provide continuous ventilation regardless of the weather and without the need to open doors and windows. This helps to maintain air quality and remove moisture from everyday living activities. 

There are 2 main types of system:

• Positive pressure or forced air ventilation systems.   These systems work by blowing drier air into your house from the roof space above the ceiling or, in some types, from outside. They suit older houses with wooden joinery better than modern houses with sealed aluminium joinery – unless windows are opened or additional vents fitted.

• Balanced pressure / heat exchanger ventilation systems.  These systems extract warm damp air from living spaces and pass it through a heat-exchanger to heat up dry air which the system brings in from outside. This can fully meet Building Code requirements. They work best in more airtight, modern homes.
