Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some answers to your most frequently asked questions about our mechanical ventilation systems.
How often do I need to change MVHR filters?
Depending on your house location, the filters usually need to be changed every year. The control / display provided with your Axco MVHR system will alert you when this needs to be done.
How does Summer bypass work in Heat Recovery Ventilation units?
On consecutive hot summer days, today's airtight, highly insulated homes (some facing south) with additional glazing to aid winter heating can have issues with summer internal uncontrolled heat gains and retention. To help reduce this, it’s recommended to use external or internal shading on the windows. Cooling is controlled by opening windows, (especially at night when it is cooler outside) to create cross ventilation. The Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery System can be increased to summer boost which will increase the fresh air supply and extraction rates and help create a noticeable benefit.
Do PIV units need serviced?
There are no service requirements for a PIV system, although we recommend changing the filter every 5 years.
What's the guarantee?
All BEAM Mechanical Ventilation Systems carry a two year product warranty.
