Failure to ventilate any home adequately, will result in the accumulation of ‘bad air’. Bad air primarily comprises excessive moisture, carbon dioxide, allergens, particulates, VOCs and unpleasant odours. At best, it’s an inconvenience. At worst bad air can prove detrimental to health, much like living life inside a plastic bag;. 

Effective ventilation is central to healthy bodies and healthy buildings.

In some instances, it can even lead to the development or deterioration of respiratory illnesses. On other occasions, elevated moisture levels can cause significant damage to the fabric and structure of a property too.  

A mechanical ventilation system is essential in any modern home. And a Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) System doesn’t just ventilate your home, it recovers waste heat too. The result is a technology which when compared with traditional ventilation methods, doesn’t just ventilate your home effectively, but maximises energy efficiency, whilst minimising your energy bills.

Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) is a system designed to provide a continual supply of clean, freshly filtered, 

pre-warmed air. Unlike some other technologies (e.g. trickle vents), there’s no requirement to compromise the airtight membrane of the home or otherwise undermine hard-won efficiency gains.

The principle of operation is simple and straight forward. It is already proven at millions of installations worldwide.

• Foul, humid air is removed from wet rooms and expelled to atmosphere

• Residual heat in the outgoing air is transferred to clean, fresh, filtered incoming air s

• Gently warmed, incoming air is distributed to living areas via the air distribution network.

Quick and simple to install Air tight, leak free ducting for MVHR  

Installing conventional ductwork with labour intensive joints can be time consuming and expensive.  Worse, no matter how well you try, invariably you may end up with a leak somewhere in the system. 

So Ubbink’s Air Excellent air distribution systems eliminate the risk of leaking joints. You simply cut the pipe to the required size, insert a fitting and once you hear a click, you know the joint’s sealed. Less work, less doubt and most importantly less rework, with the highest airtightness rating assured when installed in accordance with supplied instructions. And because the systems’ manufactured from a specialist, PVC-free polymer, Ubbink’s semi-rigid system will never rot or rust and requires only minimal maintenance. Furthermore, it’s less likely to degrade over time.
