What Is Mechanical Ventilation and Heat Recovery (MVHR)?
Mechanical Ventilation and Heat Recovery (MVHR) is a whole‑building ventilation system that continuously extracts stale, moist air from kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms while supplying fresh air to living and sleeping areas. A high‑efficiency heat exchanger transfers heat from the outgoing air to the incoming air, reducing heat loss and improving energy efficiency with many benefits including:
- Consistent supply of fresh, clean air
- Reduced heat loss and lower energy bills
- Improved indoor air quality
- Reduced condensation and mould growth
- Enhanced comfort all year round
Our Renewable Energy Services
We cover a detail service options for MVHR systems, this is what we provide:
Air To Water Heat Pumps
Air to water heat pumps extract renewable heat from the outside air and transfer it to a water‑based heating system. These systems provide low‑carbon space heating and domestic hot water and are ideally suited to new builds, renovations, and well‑insulated properties.
Air to water heat pumps work efficiently with underfloor heating and low‑temperature radiators, offering reduced energy bills and compliance with current building regulations.
Air to Air Heat Pumps
Air to air heat pumps provide renewable heating and cooling by transferring heat directly to and from indoor air. These systems are ideal for properties requiring flexible temperature control and fast response times.
Air to air heat pumps are commonly used in residential properties, apartments, offices, and commercial spaces where cooling and heating efficiency is a priority.
Solar Panel Systems
Solar panel systems convert sunlight into renewable electricity, helping to lower energy bills and improve energy independence. Solar panels can be installed on residential, commercial, and development projects and are often combined with heat pump systems to maximise energy efficiency.
Renewable Energy Systems for New Builds and Developments
Renewable energy systems play a key role in meeting current building regulations and energy performance targets. We work closely with developers and project teams to design and install air to water heat pumps, air to air heat pumps, and solar panel systems that integrate seamlessly with building services.

Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing the right renewable energy system can raise a few important questions. Below are answers to the most frequently asked questions about air to water heat pumps, air to air heat pumps, and solar panel systems. These FAQs will help you understand how each technology works, what benefits they offer, and how to get the best performance from your renewable energy investment.
Air to water heat pumps extract heat from the outside air and transfer it to a water-based system for central heating, underfloor heating, or hot water cylinders. Air to air heat pumps, on the other hand, transfer heat directly to indoor air to provide heating or cooling. Air to water is ideal for whole-house heating, while air to air is suitable for rapid room temperature control and smaller spaces.
Yes. Both heat pumps and solar panel systems reduce reliance on traditional electricity and gas, which can significantly lower energy costs. Heat pumps are highly efficient, often providing three units of heat for every unit of electricity used, while solar panels generate free electricity from sunlight, reducing grid consumption.
Air to water heat pumps work best in well-insulated properties because they operate at lower water temperatures compared to conventional boilers. Older homes can still use heat pumps, but improving insulation, window efficiency, and underfloor heating or larger radiators may be necessary for optimal performance.
Most solar panel systems last 25–30 years with minimal maintenance. Occasional cleaning to remove dust or debris, along with periodic performance checks, is usually sufficient. Battery storage systems may require additional monitoring and servicing depending on the technology.
Absolutely. Air to water heat pumps and solar panels can be integrated with existing boilers or heating systems to provide hybrid solutions. This allows homeowners or commercial clients to gradually transition to low-carbon energy while maintaining reliable heating and hot water supply.
