Does my Govan home need a ventilation system?

If you've improved insulation, installed new windows, or sealed draughts in your historic shipbuilding area property in Govan, you may need mechanical ventilation to prevent condensation and maintain air quality. MVHR systems recover heat while providing fresh air.

How much does MVHR cost in Govan?

A whole-house MVHR system for a historic shipbuilding area property in Govan costs £2,500–£4,000 installed. Single-room heat recovery units cost £1,200–£1,800. The heat recovery saves enough energy to offset running costs.

What's the difference between MEV and MVHR?

MEV (mechanical extract ventilation) extracts stale air and brings in fresh air without heat recovery. MVHR recovers up to 90% of the heat from extracted air. For historic shipbuilding area properties in Govan with good insulation, MVHR is the better investment.
