It provides detailed information on various products, their features, and installation guidelines.
Product Selector
The guide includes a product selector to help users choose the appropriate ventilation system based on specific requirements such as dwelling size, number of wet rooms, and peak airflow needs.
Xpelair Systems
Xpelair offers a range of ventilation solutions designed to prevent moisture-related issues like mold growth by ensuring proper air circulation and extraction in domestic settings.
Mechanical Extract Ventilation (MEV)
MEV systems continuously extract stale, moist air from wet rooms and discharge it outside. Centralized MEV involves a single extraction unit ducted to multiple rooms, while dMEV uses individual extractor fans in each room. MEV is suitable for larger dwellings, while dMEV is ideal for refurbishments.
Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR)
MVHR systems combine air extraction with heat recovery, conserving up to 91% of heat lost through extraction. They provide a cost-effective solution by redistributing heat to habitable rooms, ensuring a comfortable indoor environment.
Features at a Glance
The guide highlights key features of the systems, such as motor types (AC/EC/DC), constant volume performance, IP ratings for bathroom installations, and efficiency levels. It also covers installation options for both houses and apartments.

Xpelair Systems Mechanical Extract Ventilation (MEV) The solution to the challenges for condensation and mould What is MEV? Is this system right for my application? Mechanical Extract Ventilation (MEV) creates a healthy living environment for occupants by extracting stale, moist air continuously from the wet rooms of a dwelling and discharging this to the external atmosphere. There are two ways of achieving this type of system: by installing a central extraction unit (such as the Xpelair Xplus 2 EC) which is then ducted to multiple wet rooms and sited discreetly in a loft or airing cupboard;...
