Future Homes Standard 2025 Compliant | Zero Ductwork Required
MVHR (Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery) is becoming essential for modern UK homes under the Future Homes Standard 2025. Traditional systems require expensive ductwork throughout your entire home.
Decentralised MVHR is revolutionary: individual units installed in each room with NO central ductwork. Each unit independently ventilates, recovers heat, and filters air.
| Feature | Decentralised MVHR | Traditional Ducted MVHR |
|---|---|---|
| Installation Cost | ✅ £2,000-£4,000 | ❌ £5,000-£12,000 |
| Ductwork Required | ✅ None - just wall vents | ❌ Extensive ceiling/floor ducts |
| Retrofit Friendly | ✅ Ideal - minimal disruption | ❌ Difficult - requires ceiling access |
| Room Control | ✅ Independent per room | ⚠️ Whole-house system |
| Maintenance | ✅ Simple - accessible units | ❌ Complex - hidden ductwork |
| Noise Level | ✅ 19-29 dB (whisper) | ⚠️ 25-40 dB (noticeable) |
| Heat Recovery | ✅ 90-95% efficient | ✅ 85-95% efficient |
The UK government's Future Homes Standard (effective 2025) requires all new homes to produce 75-80% less CO₂ than current building regulations.
