Technical Questions
Q: Can air conditioning systems provide heating?
A: Modern air conditioning systems use heat pump technology and provide both cooling and heating. These systems are particularly effective for rooms without central heating, such as conservatories or extensions. They draw up to 80% of their energy from renewable sources, making them energy-efficient heating solutions.
Q: What is MVHR ventilation?
A: Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) systems continuously supply fresh, filtered air while recovering heat from outgoing air. These systems improve indoor air quality and energy efficiency, making them ideal for well-insulated properties or commercial buildings requiring consistent ventilation.
