Hi. Has anyone here got an MVHR in their house? My question is a little strange but hope someone here can help
We are building a new house which will be super-insulated and air-tight. This means that unless we open the windows, we need to mechanically ventilate the house. We also intend to recover the heat from the stale air being sucked out to warm the fresh air being drawn in.
I recently spent a couple of hours in a house with MVHR and found afterwards that my eyes (I wear contact lenses) were dry and very uncomfortable. Is this an effect of the MVHR? Anyone got any experience? It may have been that I was sitting under vent in the ceiling and the air flow was blowing down on me. Anyone got any experience? Don't want to invest in this system if it makes the atmosphere in the house uncomfortable for me.
