Is MVHR right for your home?

Use this quick suitability checker to see whether mechanical ventilation with heat recovery could be a strong fit, a possible fit, or something that needs a more careful review. It is a guide, not a final design.

1. What stage is your project at?

2. How airtight or upgraded is the home likely to be?

3. Is there a practical route for ductwork?

4. What problem are you mainly trying to solve?

5. What type of property is it?

6. Are you already planning other upgrades?

Choose all that apply.

When is MVHR worth considering?

Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery is usually most suitable in new builds, major renovations and more airtight homes where you want fresh filtered air without losing as much heat through background ventilation.

It can also be worth considering when condensation, stale air, allergies or whole-home comfort are becoming bigger issues, especially if you are already planning other energy upgrades.

Next step: use the result above as a first guide, then talk to Cube Solar about whether MVHR is practical for your specific home in Bath or Somerset.
