What this work involves
Discuss occupancy, existing provisions, sound and duct space. Have the system designed and commissioned for the home.
- System choice
- Ducts, terminals and noise
- Maintenance and commissioning
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Plan service routes to minimise unnecessary damage to retained elements.
Decide this before construction
Start with a survey and trial repair, reviewing the result before treating the whole surface. Protect retained elements while removing adjoining material.
Allow for later maintenance
Keep product information and photographs of the assessed substrate. They support later inspection without reconstructing the original repair decision.
Cost factors for this service
Costs depend on system, duct routes, access and finishing. Ask for the scope and selected specification to be described separately.
Bring this to the discussion
Photographs of the existing situation, available drawings and your requirements for ventilation & heat recovery. Identify the elements that should remain.
Questions about the work
What should I discuss before arranging ventilation & heat recovery?
Replacing a ventilation unit may not be enough. Supply air, transfer paths and duct condition also determine overall performance.
The design situations here illustrate choices; they are not completed projects or a diagnosis of your property.
