What is Heat Recovery?

An energy-efficient process that helps keep an air-tight home cosy and well ventilated.

How does it work?

• Stale, damp and warm air is removed from ‘wet’ areas of your home, such as the kitchen and bathrooms.
• Fresh air is drawn in from the outside and the stale air is used to heat this fresh air in a heat exchanger.

• The stale air is then disposed of through an exhaust vent and the fresh, now warm air is introduced into your home.

What are the benefits?

• Improves the energy-efficiency of your home
• Reduces heating costs
• Keeps your home ‘fresher’
• Lowers humidity levels and reduces damp / harmful bacteria
• Provides health benefits for allergy sufferers

• Is environmentally friendly
