PIV Installation
Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) is an innovative system designed to improve indoor air quality and prevent condensation, dampness, and mould growth in your home. By introducing a constant flow of fresh, filtered air, a PIV system helps to expel stale, humid air, thereby improving your living environment and health.
How Does PIV Work?
A PIV system operates by creating positive air pressure within your home. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the process:
Installation of Filtration Unit: A PIV unit is typically installed in the loft, though wall-mounted alternatives are available for homes without lofts. This unit draws in fresh air from outside.
Air Filtration: The incoming air is filtered to remove pollutants, such as particulate matter and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
Air Distribution: The filtered air is pushed out through a distribution diffuser installed on the ceiling below the loft.
Positive Air Pressure: This positive pressure forces stale, humid air out through natural leakage points, like windows and doors, ensuring continuous removal of moisture and pollutants.
Health Benefits of PIV Systems
Living in a damp or poorly ventilated home can lead to serious health issues. A PIV system can mitigate these risks by:
• Preventing Respiratory Illnesses,
• Improving Allergy Symptoms,
• Lowering the Risk of Serious Conditions,
• Home Maintenance Benefits
A PIV system not only benefits your health but also helps maintain your home:
• Preventing Structural Damage,
• Aesthetic Maintenance,
• Minimising Repair Costs,
PIV vs. Mechanical Ventilation
While both PIV and mechanical ventilation systems improve air quality, PIV systems offer several distinct advantages:
• Cost-Effective Installation,
• Heat Retention,
• Energy Efficiency,
• Low Maintenance.
