Ventilation Systems

Ventilation Products

Permagard offers a range of ventilation systems designed to efficiently reduce condensation, prevent mould growth and improve indoor air quality. They work by encouraging warm, moist air to leave a property and replacing it with fresh air.

From single room passive vents to whole home PIV solutions, we stock ventilation systems to meet every property type and budget.

Types of Ventilation System

At Permagard, our ventilation solutions span the following system types:

• Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) - whole property systems that introduce fresh filtered air, encouraging healthy airflow throughout the home
• Heat Recovery Ventilation - energy-efficient units that extract moist, stale air while warming incoming fresh air to reduce condensation and improve air quality
• Passive Ventilation - designed to be installed in smaller areas and rooms with problem condensation - shop our Perma-Vent passive air vents

Home ventilation systems

Our whole flat or home positive input ventilation systems utilise units located in a central position to ventilate the entire property. They work by displacing and replacing moisture-laden air in your home with fresh filtered air from outside.

PIV systems also force contaminants out of the property. This immediately improves indoor air quality and eliminates mould growth. Popular options include Nuaire Flatmaster for flats and Nuaire Drimaster Eco LC with Loft Control for properties with lofts.

Room ventilation

It may be that you want to focus on single room ventilation, tackling a problematic area of your property rather than your whole home. The options here include:

• Our bestselling Perma-Vent Condensation Control Vent and the PermaPROTECT Passive Air Vent with its discreet and attractive design
• Kair Heat Recovery Room Ventilator and Kair Mini Single Room Heat Recovery Ventilator

Ventilation for bedrooms

Whisper-quiet units such as Kair Mini Heat Recovery Unit are ideal for bedrooms. They are energy efficient, barely audible and work well for bedrooms with condensation issues.

Which ventilation product is best for me?

^* Kair Heat Recovery Unit and Kair Mini Single Heat Recovery Unit are single-room heat recovery ventilators. They can be installed in individual rooms (including basement rooms with an external wall) and can help improve overall air quality in the home, but they are not designed to ventilate an entire basement or whole property on their own; multiple units or a dedicated whole-home system would be required.

Poor ventilation and condensation issues

Poor ventilation can lead to condensation and related issues like mould growth. At Permagard, we help improve ventilation as well as tackle mould growth.

You can explore our anti-mould products that actively target existing black mould, killing it and stopping it coming back. We stock anti-mould paint, as well as a mould-resistant paint and a handy mould remover kit. You can also look to stop condensation forming on internal surfaces with an anti-condensation paint.
