Top Tips for Installing Ventilation

  • Use a cooker extraction fan with a recirculating filter
  • Any wood burning stoves should have their own independent air supply
  • All bathrooms should have a manual boost switch for the ventilation system
  • Do not forget that some units will need a condensation drain from the unit
  • Provide a small gap below doors to allow air circulation throughout the house
  • How are you venting outside?
  • Make sure the unit will fit through any trap doors
  • Some large units are very heavy – please bare this in mind for placement of unit

Safety When Installing MVHR

It is important to take safety precautions when installing any systems to protect yourself from any potential harm. The safety measurements we recommend that you take are outlined below:

-       Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment

-       Always wear a protective face mask when using duct insulation

-       It is recommended to use walking boards when working in a loft void

-       If the loft is fully insulated when work is being carried out, it is recommended to provide adequate air throughout the installation process

-       Electrical connections should be made by a qualified electrician.

BPC Services & Design

By having a design done by our professional in-house designers, this means that your system will be fool proof and easy to install. It will show placement on unit and valves and you can upgrade to have all ducting marked for a more in depth and detailed plan.

What we provide with each system:

  • A Detailed Floor Plan – floor plan will have the approximate locations and dimensions of pipe; you may have to alter the design to suit specific requirements of the building
  • A List of Supplied Ducting – please check this list before you sign the delivery docket for any damaged or missing items. The amount of ducting that is provided is calculated from the received plans, if more ducting is required this would be at an additional cost
  • Technical Support – do not hesitate to contact us on 028 28 275 150 from 8am-5pm Monday to Friday if you have any questions
  • Installation Manual – we will provide an installation manual for your chosen ducting and heat recovery unit
  • Airflow Rates – we will provide air flow rates for all the air valves to help commission the system.

Commissioning Service

As well as installation we can also commission your system for you. Commissioning your system is key in achieving a quiet and efficient system that is balanced. A balanced system is important so that rooms have the correct air changes and so your system is not being over worked.
