Heat Recovery System
A controlled and efficient heat recovery ventilation system is the answer to many economic, environmental and health problems in a tightly sealed modern home.
In a conventional, highly insulated modern home the moisture caused by the occupants' activity breathing must be extracted to prevent damage to the fabric of the building. A surprising amount of this moisture is caused by water vapour exhaled as the people inside breathe. If fresh air is not circulated the inhabitants will also suffer as the air quality will be poor and CO2 levels unacceptably high for a healthy living environment. Conventional air vents which do not circulate the air also lose a lot of the heat created in your home.
This is where the advantages of the heat recovery system are clear. As air is being ventilated into the house the heat from the used air is recovered via a heat exchanger and this energy is filtered back to heat the fresh air which is coming in. This fresh, warm air is then circulated throughout your home.
Huge savings of 90% are made with this system as it makes sure that all heat produced for the home is not lost. Therefore less power is required to keep your home at an optimum temperature which means it's not only better for the environment but also better for the home owner economically.
The heat recovery system can have many added features, air conditioning, additional heating or air source heat pump ready. We will help find you the system to suit your needs.
The installation of the heat recovery system is easy as all ventilation pipes run through the ceiling rafters and from a centralised location. The installation is guaranteed. Installation time varies.
