Mechanical Ventilation System in Ireland

Condensation on your windows every morning. Stuffy rooms that never feel fresh. Energy bills that keep climbing. If your Irish home feels like it is working against you, the problem is usually poor ventilation.

VentSolve installs MVHR systems that supply fresh, filtered air throughout your home while recovering heat you would otherwise lose. Your home stays warm, dry, and healthy all year round, without opening a window or wasting energy.

Why Dublin Homeowners Are Switching to MVHR?

Modern Irish homes are built airtight to save energy. But without proper mechanical ventilation, that sealed envelope traps moisture, stale air, and pollutants inside. Here is why MVHR is becoming the standard solution.

Eliminates Condensation at the Source

Condensation forms when warm, moist air meets cold surfaces. MVHR continuously extracts moisture-laden air from kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms and replaces it with dry, filtered air. This breaks the condensation cycle that leads to streaming windows, damp walls, and mould growth.

Lower Heating Bills Without Sacrificing Comfort

The heat exchanger inside an MVHR unit recovers warmth from the air leaving your home and transfers it to the fresh air coming in. You keep ventilating without losing the heat your boiler or heat pump has already paid for.

Meets Part F of Irish Building Regulations

Part F of the Irish Building Regulations requires adequate ventilation in new and retrofitted homes. MVHR is the most widely used compliant solution for airtight, energy-efficient properties across Dublin and Ireland.

Improves Your BER Rating and Property Value

A properly installed MVHR system can improve your Building Energy Rating, which affects property value, grant eligibility, and regulatory compliance. Homes with heat recovery ventilation consistently score better than those relying on trickle vents and extractor fans alone.

Ventsolve replaced the ventilation ducting in my attic, which was leaking flexi pipes with poor cello-tape junctions, with properly insulated ducts and proper plastic junctions. It was very easy to deal with them, very responsive, clear pricing, and the installer was very helpful and professional, and did a great and clean job.

I sent request for information to 4 companies and VentSolve were the only ones to reply. I found them very responsive and product (the Ecovent heat recovery standalone ventilation units) seems reliable and do what they day on the box. Ventsolve very good customer service and answer all my questions.

If only every company was as easy to deal with as VentSolve! 👏 They made booking very quick and simple, asked for info and photos to be sure they had the right details and that my order was the right option for my home. I got an email the day before my booking with an arrival time and work details. They arrived on time, confirmed the job details, then got to work. In about 45 mins, they'd expertly replaced 3 extractor fans with super quiet, low profile, modern fans .... and they cleaned up after the work. Top quality work and professionalism! Will definitely use VentSolve again for any future work.

I had 4 heat recovery ventilation units fitted in my house in Rush..I did a good bit of research into the company beforehand including speaking to other customers . I went ahead and could find no fault at all with any aspect of the service provided. I am really happy that the rooms smell healthier and less damp as well. Their after sales has been really prompt to help do necessary checks on the system eg with filters. They replied immediately with helpful assistance.. the value was really competitive as well..I am really happy with this company it is really an excellent service.. thanks guys.

How an MVHR System Works in Your Home?

It is a whole-house system that keeps your air fresh without opening windows. Here is what happens inside the unit and throughout your home.

Fresh Air Drawn in From Outside

An intake vent on the external wall draws fresh outdoor air into the MVHR unit. This air enters the system before it reaches any room in your home, ensuring everything passes through the filtration stage first.

Filtered to Remove Dust, Pollen, and Pollutants

Inside the unit, high-grade filters catch dust, pollen, traffic particulates, and other airborne contaminants. The air that reaches your living rooms and bedrooms is clean and safe to breathe, regardless of what is happening outside.

Warmed by the Heat Exchanger

The filtered air passes through a heat exchanger where warmth from the outgoing stale air is transferred to the incoming fresh air. This is the core of the system. You get ventilation without the heat loss that comes from open windows or trickle vents.

Distributed to Every Habitable Room

Warm, clean air is delivered to living rooms, bedrooms, and other habitable spaces through ducting and discreet ceiling valves. Each room receives a controlled supply of fresh air, balanced to suit the property layout.

Stale Air Extracted From Wet Rooms

Simultaneously, the system extracts moist, stale air from kitchens, bathrooms, ensuites, and utility rooms. This air passes back through the heat exchanger to give up its warmth before being expelled outside. The cycle runs continuously, 24 hours a day.

What Affects the Cost

The price of an MVHR installation depends on the size of your home, the number of rooms requiring supply or extraction, whether the property is a new build or retrofit, and the complexity of the ducting layout. A full property survey is needed for an accurate, all-in quote.

MVHR Unit Pricing

MVHR units start from around €2,300 for a whole-house energy recovery system (supply only). Installation is additional and quoted after the survey. VentSolve also supplies single room heat recovery units from €400 and bathroom ventilation solutions from €110.

FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is an MVHR System and How Does It Work?

MVHR stands for Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery. It extracts stale, moist air from wet rooms and supplies fresh, filtered air to living spaces. A heat exchanger recovers warmth from the outgoing air and transfers it to the incoming fresh air, so your home stays ventilated without losing heat.

How Much Does It Cost to Install MVHR in Ireland?

The total cost depends on your property size, number of rooms, ducting requirements, and whether it is a new build or retrofit. MVHR units start from around €2,300 (supply only), with installation additional. VentSolve offers a €1,500 instant discount on qualifying systems, and you may also qualify for the SEAI grant of up to €1,500. Contact us for a free quote.

Can MVHR Be Fitted in an Existing Home?

Yes. MVHR can be retrofitted into existing properties, though the ease of installation depends on the property type and layout. Retrofit projects may need more planning around duct routing. We assess every property individually and confirm what is involved during the consultation.

Is an MVHR System Noisy?

MVHR units are designed for quiet operation. With properly installed rigid ducting and silencers, the system runs in the background without disrupting daily life. VentSolve uses best-practice ducting methods to keep noise to a minimum throughout your home.

How Often Does an MVHR System Need Servicing?

We recommend professional servicing at least once a year. This includes component checks, airflow balancing, and performance verification. Filters should be replaced annually as well. A well-maintained MVHR system has a typical lifespan of 15 to 20 years.

What Grants Are Available for MVHR in Ireland?

The SEAI offers a Mechanical Ventilation Grant of up to €1,500 for eligible homeowners. To qualify, your property must have been built and occupied before 2011, hold a current BER of B3 or lower, and achieve at least a B2 rating after the upgrade. VentSolve also offers its own €1,500 instant discount on qualifying systems.
