Ventilation That Works for Your Home or Business

Modern homes and commercial buildings are often built to be airtight for energy efficiency, so ventilation needs to be planned carefully. Poor ventilation and excess indoor moisture can contribute to condensation and mould. An appropriate ventilation system can help manage moisture and improve air exchange, but persistent damp or mould may also require investigation of insulation, cold bridging, leaks or other building-related causes.

We design and install ventilation systems for homes and businesses across Leicester — from simple bathroom extraction to whole-house MVHR systems and commercial kitchen ventilation. Our engineers specify systems around the Building Regulations and Approved Document F requirements applicable to each project.

  • MVHR whole-house heat recovery ventilation
  • Positive input ventilation (PIV) for stale or humid indoor air
  • Kitchen and commercial ventilation and extraction
  • Building Regulations Part F design support

A well-designed ventilation system supports air exchange, comfort and the long-term condition of your building.

💨

Fresh Air

Continuous supply of fresh filtered air without the need to open windows.

💧

Condensation Control

Reduce excess moisture to help control condensation, damp and mould risk.

🌡

Heat Recovery

MVHR systems recover up to 90% of the heat from extracted air, reducing energy costs.

🌬

Indoor Air Quality

Ventilation helps refresh indoor air and manage stale, humid conditions. Performance depends on the system type, design and maintenance.

🏠

Building Protection

Moisture management can help protect the building fabric, alongside appropriate insulation and building maintenance.

📋

Regulation Support

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between MVHR and PIV?

MVHR (Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery) is a whole-house ducted system that extracts stale air and supplies fresh filtered air while recovering heat from the extracted air. PIV (Positive Input Ventilation) introduces filtered air from the loft into suitable homes to help dilute and displace stale, humid air.

Do I need ventilation in a new build?

Yes. Ventilation requirements depend on the Building Regulations standards and transitional arrangements applying to the project. The project design and compliance team confirm the required route, and we provide appropriate ventilation equipment and technical information as part of the installation. We can design and install a suitable system as part of your new build project, working with your build team from the design stage.

Can ventilation help with condensation and mould?

Poor ventilation and excess indoor moisture can contribute to condensation and mould. An appropriate ventilation system can help manage moisture and improve air exchange, but persistent damp or mould may also require investigation of insulation, cold bridging, leaks or other building-related causes.

Do you service and maintain ventilation systems?

Yes. We offer servicing and maintenance for all ventilation system types — filter changes, coil cleaning, airflow balancing and full system checks. Contact us to arrange a service visit or ongoing maintenance contract.
