Polypipe Ventilation MVHR units can serve seven wet rooms

Polypipe Ventilation, MVHR, heat recovery

Polypipe Ventilation has extended its range of mechanical ventilation systems with heat recovery (MVHR) with high-capacity models for larger properties. The new units comply with Energy Saving Trust best practice and are SAP HR02 and HR03 rated. They can serve up to seven wet rooms and a kitchen. They can work at up to 640 Pa, making possible very long duct runs.

These units are very compact and be installed in eye-level cupboards in kitchens or in a loft, passing through even the smallest loft hatch.

Up to 92% of the 600 W of heat extracted from a moist bathroom can be recovered to heat other rooms.

To simplify the specification of central ventilation systems, the company’s VSPweb online planning tool helps customers select a duct system and the most suitable HR unit for a property. One outcome is a single order code for the correct Duct Pack. Duct Packs are available from a network of approved ventilation solution providers.
