2.2 

Responsibility of the Installer 

 

 

Correct Installation, balancing and commissioning of the MHRV unit. 

 

Record measured air flow volumes on each of the valves at High and Low rate. 

 

Compliance to requirements and local additional rules. 

 

Explanation of the ventilation system to the user. 

 

Warning for the user, to check or replace the air filters on time. 

 

All the above, as set out in the latest edition of the Domestic Ventilation Compliance Guide 
and the SAP Appendix Q – installation Guide and Checklist.

 

 

 

2.3 

Responsibility of the Occupant 

 

 

Replacement of the filters as per the recommended interval. 

 

Cleaning the valves in the rooms regularly to prevent blockage. 

 

To ensure that the system is functioning properly on a regular basis 

 

To use manual boost switches (where provided) to prevent build-up of pollutants or mould 
growth. 

 
 

IMPORTANT: Dirty or clogged filters may cause inadequate ventilation in the home which may lead 
to health issues. It is important that the filters are changed 

at least

 once per year or as required.  

In new build properties it may be prudent to check/ change your filters after the first 3 months of 
occupancy depending on the amount of residual ‘building dust’ present within the property.
