[QUOTE="renewablejohn, post: 7875377, member: 1136"] Very happy with it but the MVHR is a Partel system so you dont have multiple pipes just two pipes on a section, The fans are balanced so as one sucks the other blows and so the 90% of the heat retained is blown back into the house the rest of the section air sealed. With the farmhouse being T shaped we have 4 sections on 2 levels so 8 fans in total. Really keeps the fabric of the building good which is why it was a condition of the listed building consent as English Heritage recommended it. Never known anything so good for extracting moisture and with dry walls the insulation is so much better. Only thing not happy with is the control unit being German it does bot fit properly in UK electric box but will eventually rectify using german wall mount electric boxes. [/QUOTE]
