Our ventilation testing service helps you ensure compliance with Part F of the building regulations that is key to the completion of any new building development.

As buildings become more airtight for better energy efficiency, proper ventilation becomes even more crucial to prevent the build up of black mould. We often carry out ventilation testing at the same time as air tightness tests to keep costs as low as possible for housebuilders.

For new builds, we offer Part F ventilation testing, a requirement to comply with building regulations for all property developments.

For properties with MVHR systems we offer MVHR commissioning, where we can calibrate your system to use very little electricity. This calibration needs to be carried out by an experienced air tester.

For existing properties, we offer a ventilation survey to assess your existing ventilation system and identify areas for improvement.

Ventilation testing plays a vital part in many building projects. Here’s a brief introduction to the most common variations: 

Part F Ventilation Testing

Ventilation testing is a requirement under part F of the building regulations for all new property developments and is normally carried out right at the end of the project, just before residents move in.  While all new build dwellings require a Part F ventilation test, building control does not always ask for it.

MVHR Commissioning

Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) systems are increasingly being used in energy-efficient buildings as they can be calibrated to use very little electricity. This calibration, called MVHR commissioning, needs to be carried out by an experienced air tester.

MVHR commissioning involves testing and adjusting the fan speed in each fan unit to optimise its performance. Fan flow rates need to be recorded before the system can be certified.

Existing Property Ventilation Survey

While ventilation testing is mandatory for new builds, it can also be beneficial for existing properties. We can assess your existing ventilation system and identify areas for improvement. This can help you:
