Mechanical Extract Ventilation

MEV System Installation UK

Continuous extraction ventilation that removes stale, humid air from wet rooms. The perfect solution for condensation and mould prevention in homes and apartments.

What is MEV and How Does It Work?

Mechanical Extract Ventilation (MEV) is a centralized system that continuously extracts stale, humid air from wet rooms like bathrooms, kitchens, and utility rooms. A single quiet fan unit, typically located in a loft or cupboard, draws air through ducting from multiple extract points.

Fresh replacement air enters naturally through trickle vents in habitable rooms, creating a gentle airflow throughout your home that prevents condensation, reduces humidity, and maintains healthy indoor air quality.
