    From the Airflow website the DV145 unit installed is priced at £3k. And there were 2 required for the size of house shown. Plus 700m of pipework and all the accessories, labour and a fair amount of associated electrical/networking work no doubt. Then there is the spray foam and all of the effort in sealing up the house so that the HVAC system will work as advertised. The science is fine but for early adopters I cannot see any payback on your energy bills over the medium term for the capital outlay. On top of this they still need hot water which is presumably from a boiler? Did I hear him say that they had underfloor heating in the kitchen as well?

    • @AlexSavage
      @AlexSavage 3 года назад +3

      The example in the video is for a very large house. I have a 3 bed terrace 92sqm floor area. I installed 1 unit, 100m of ducting and it cost £1300 but I done all myself. I also have underfloor heating on the ground floor and rads upstairs. The hot water has nothing to do with the system. He did say they have ufh in the kitchen..

      Hi David this house would normally cost Thousands of pounds to run a year. The HRVS system with the Air source heat running the hot water and heating side this pay back will be in 6 years with the grant from the government, Fossil fuels just keep going up. it has massive health benefits for Air quality and filters out irritants like pollen and pollution which is good for hay fever and asthma sufferers all the best Tony 👍

    Just what I needed as I was looking forward to researching this and your video helps. Just a question how good is the air extraction in the kitchen compared with a standard extractor? Another stupid question.. is the fresh air supply into the room cold and warm air depending on the setting and how noisy is the system

    • @AlexSavage
      @AlexSavage 3 года назад +3

      It doesn't perform as well as a standard kitchen extractor that vents outside. This is for constant background venitlation 95% of the time and boost when using the shower or cooking. The extractor point in the kitchen isn't recommend near the hob because of the grease might get sucked up.

    • @kirkenicker3136
      @kirkenicker3136 3 года назад +2

      Your kitchen extractor directly above your hob/stove has a few speed settings 1/2/3. It will extract from 10l/s - 24l/s. Many kitchen extract systems above the hobs do not have the ductwork installed to dump the air outside the property. Its simply pulls the air pass a filter and dumps it towards the top of the kitchen merely acting as a degreaser.
      Kitchen extraction that is part of the mechanical ventilation system (MVHR) is more consistent and reliable. The air valve in the kitchen ceiling can be setup in a manner where by the air is extracted 24 hours a day @ 10l/s like setting 1 on the independent kitchen hob noisy extractor. You do not have to keep turning it off and on.
      If you require more extraction rate from the system your could flick a boost switch and the air extraction rate can increase from 10l/s to 17l/s. The boost could have an overrun timer on it set to 15 minutes where you control the rate of air you removing.

    • @asif530
      @asif530 3 года назад

      @@kirkenicker3136 OK. But the area of the air attraction unit is too small to really extract the air from a large kitchen even at 10l/s. The normal formula is 1l/s is approx 3.6m3/hour. So at 10l/s that is 36m3/hour of air extracted. This would be fine if the volume of the kitchen is small but not sure you will get many air changes/extraction per hour with such a system. Therefore my own conclusion is that a good hob extraction can achieve a much higher volume of extraction and more air changes per hour.

      asif zardari residents don’t stand in front of hobs for hours on end to ensure living spaces undergo sufficient air changes.
      I have been commissioning residential ventilation systems for 9 years now and can tell you 1st hand that people will never remind themselves to run jobs that are a noise disturbance for long periods of time.

    • @asif530
      @asif530 3 года назад

      @@kirkenicker3136 you make a valid point. I still think these systems are good for general background ventilation as they are less noisy and run for long periods. Maybe i need to test it out when cooking a spicey Indian curry to see how well it works compared with a good kitchen extractor to a duct outside.

    I understand that this is a paid video(there are a lot of other manufacturers, but I have used their ducts which are 63mm diameter not 100mm), there are pro's about fitting a mvhr unit in the house, it costs a bit but it's not about getting your money back. You will get some back but you will have fresh filtered air all year round. Considering that you have to make the house as air tight as possible, you will be saving on your heating bills/cooling. The air flows don't mix, so there no air recycling only heat recovery.
