Heat recovery ventilation
Providing clean, fresh, filtered air
Although the Covid pandemic is now over, it highlighted the importance of hygiene and cleanliness in commercial environments.
'Clean air' has become a serious consideration as businesses and the wider world looks at ways to reduce the spread of viruses and bacteria. More and more companies - from healthcare to hospitality to retail - are asking us about heat recovery ventilation systems.
A heat recovery ventilation system supplies clean, filtered fresh air that is heated from the recovered warmth of the extracted heat. A properly fitted heat recovery ventilation system provides a constant supply of fresh filtered air, maintaining the air quality whilst being practically imperceptible. This is ideal for offices, shops, and healthcare environments like GP surgeries, dental practices and vets.
Mechanical Heat Recovery Ventilation systems (MVHR) comprise of a heat exchanger and a central duct system supplying/extracting air throughout the premises. The extracted air passes through a heat exchanger, pre-heating the fresh air entering the commercial premises. 95% of the heat energy contained within the extracted air can be recovered to pre-heat the fresh air. Systems have the option of a 'summer bypass' in which fresh air bypasses the heat exchanger, bringing cooler air into the property.
