WHAT IS CENTRALISED MECHANICAL EXTRACT VENTILATION (MEV)?
MEV is the opposite of decentralised (dMEV) ventilation and uses a single fan unit, normally located in the loft space or a cupboard to provide a constant level of ventilation which considerably improves air quality in the home. When the unit detects moisture, it boosts the fan speed automatically.
Why is MEV so good?
Highly efficient
Having only 1 fan that extracts stale and humid air from multiple bathrooms/ensuites/kitchens and utility rooms rather than 1 in each, means more efficiency.
The EC motor is designed for continuous running and is efficient at all speeds.
Trickle and boost for all rooms with intelligent humidity sensor
Our MEV features a trickle ventilation mode that maintains a constant low level of ventilation, ensuring a fresher environment even when you’re not actively using the space.
When the built-in humidity sensor detects moisture in the air stream, it boosts the airflow, effectively removing pollutants and excess moisture.
Low noise
By using a centrally located unit, typically mounted in a loft, and a quiet-running EC motor, MEV systems operate with minimal noise, ensuring a more comfortable indoor environment.
Extra control
If you want even more control, you can add additional sensors for occupancy such as a PIR, additional humidity, or a manual override with speed control.
