Do you dream of enjoying a healthy microclimate at home? We understand perfectly. After all, the trend towards healthy lifestyles and creating comfortable conditions at home is particularly relevant. One way homeowners can achieve both is by installing decentralised Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery, or decentralised MVHR. Unlike traditional centralised systems, dMVHR offers a number of benefits that can transform the indoor environment, air quality and energy consumption of residential buildings. In this article, we look at how decentralised MVHR systems improve both air quality and energy efficiency, making them an excellent choice for homeowners.
Why Choose dMVHR?
Ecostream told us about the benefits of such modern ventilation systems. These include improving air quality, controlling humidity and creating a comfortable microclimate in the home. Yes, we can see a whole list of arguments for installing a dMVHR. So let’s talk about them one by one.
Better air at home
Poor ventilation is hazardous to human health. Insufficient air exchange leads to the accumulation of pollutants, moisture and allergens in the air in your home. This increases the risk of discomfort (dizziness, headaches), allergic reactions and respiratory problems. This is particularly dangerous for sensitive people, asthmatics, young children and the elderly.
Decentralised MVHR systems ensure a continuous supply of fresh air and removal of stale air. Even when the windows are closed at home, you can enjoy a continuous flow of fresh air.
The system removes several types of pollutants:
- Dust.
- Pet dander.
- Volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
- Carbon dioxide.
The system’s decentralised units are installed directly in individual rooms or zones, allowing them to direct air to specific areas where ventilation is most needed.
Reducing humidity and preventing mould
Excessive humidity is a common problem in flats and houses in the UK. Decentralised MVHR systems help to regulate humidity levels by removing humid air and bringing in dry, fresh air from outside, which is particularly useful in high humidity areas such as kitchens and bathrooms.
So you can get rid of mould and mildew and enjoy a healthy environment.
It’s interesting to note that installing energy-efficient ventilation systems is also budget-friendly. You can choose a system that is optimal in terms of cost and performance. And install it without delay. Sounds great, doesn’t it?
Increased energy efficiency
Decentralised ventilation systems do more than just provide fresh air. Thanks to their design features, they also ensure that heat is exchanged between the incoming and outgoing air. This ensures that your home is always at a comfortable temperature. And you save on energy bills.
To sum up
So installing decentralised ventilation in your home is a good idea. From a purely technical point of view, there are also many advantages — easy installation without disruptive repairs, easy to set up and operate without the need for frequent maintenance. So if you have been thinking about quality ventilation in your home for a long time, this is a solution you should definitely consider!
