Energy-Efficient Ventilation for Modern Commercial Buildings
At Hancox Gas and Plumbing, we specialize in the design, installation, and maintenance of Commercial Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) systems. Whether you're planning a new build or upgrading an existing facility, our team delivers custom MVHR solutions that optimize indoor air quality, reduce energy consumption, and ensure regulatory compliance.
What Is an MVHR System?
MVHR systems continuously extract stale, moisture-laden air from inside the building while supplying fresh, filtered air from outside—all while recovering up to 90% of the heat from the outgoing air. This makes them ideal for energy-efficient commercial environments, especially where airtight construction or high occupancy demands effective ventilation.
Our Commercial MVHR Services
- MVHR System Design & Specification: We work closely with architects, developers, and consultants to design MVHR systems tailored to each building’s layout, usage, and air change requirements. Our designs prioritize energy efficiency, noise control, and compliance with Part F and L of Building Regulations.
- Professional Installation: Our experienced technicians ensure precise, clean, and code-compliant installation of your MVHR system—whether it’s a standalone retrofit or part of a larger mechanical package. We coordinate with other trades to keep your project on schedule.
- Commissioning & Balancing: Proper commissioning is crucial for performance. We fully test and balance each system, verifying airflow rates, controls, and heat recovery efficiency to ensure optimal operation from day one.
- Planned Maintenance & Servicing: We offer scheduled maintenance plans that include filter replacements, airflow checks, and performance diagnostics—minimizing downtime and maximizing lifespan. Regular servicing also helps meet legal ventilation requirements and indoor air quality standards.
- System Upgrades & Retrofitting: For outdated or underperforming ventilation systems, we offer upgrades to modern MVHR units that deliver higher efficiency, lower running costs, and improved air quality.
