Axco Heru Rotary MVHR | Beam HRV Systems

High efficiency aluminium Rotary Heat Exchanger provides automatic climate control and requires no condensate drain.
Recuperates moisture & heat energy, improving indoor air quality and comfort.
Programmable hand held interactive wireless remote control.
Large surface Pollen Grade F7 filter (inlet and outlet) is the highest specification available for any ventilation system.
Enersave (Automatic Temperature Guidance). Target temperature can be set on remote control.
Low energy use. High capacity systems offer very low running costs. High performance, low energy EC fans, exclusive and developed for Beam Vacuum & Ventilation.
Heavy duty commercial grade construction in zinc galvanised steel. Insulated with 50mm dense mineral wool for quietness and facilitates use in any cold space. Unit will last a housetime.
High Capacity Units. Full range suitable for all house sizes and commercial applications.
Use of commercial smoothflow rigid ducting throughout. Low pressure loss means low energy use. Higher heat efficiency. Quieter (due to low velocity). Ducting can be cleaned & maintained. Resists crush damage during construction and thereafter. Lifetime installation.
Precision engineered fittings. Only precision fit metal and plastic fittings, ducting and silencers, along with Grade 1 duct installation are professionally installed throughout.

Best Practice MVHR installation

All ventilation systems are designed in-house by our experienced technical team and installed by our team of BPEC registered engineers.

Our Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) systems are installed using smoothflow rigid ducting throughout, providing higher heat efficiency. The resulting low pressure loss will ensure lower energy use with the system being quieter due to efficient low velocity.

Resistant to crush damage during construction, this solid ducting can be cleaned and maintained if required.

We only use precision engineered metal and plastic fittings, ducting and silencers mechanically fastened and sealed at every joint.

MVHR Ducting Installation should take place as follows:

If the house is of concrete slab construction
When roof is complete (building watertight)
Before any other services are installed below the concrete slab
A void space of 200mm below the concrete slab will allow insulated duct to be used
A void space of 100mm will mean you will have to convert to 204/60mm flat channel ducting
If the house is of timber-frame construction
When roof is complete (building watertight)
Before any other services are installed
Timber partition walls and floors are in place

Should you decide to install a MVHR system from Beam on a DIY basis, we can provide design layout and commissioning. However, it is crucial that best practice is adhered to at all times to ensure system efficiency.

Wireless Remote Control

Axco Heru MVHR systems are operated via a wireless remote control with an operating range of approximately 50m and works through walls and roof. The Programmable remote control displays performance information including:

Axco Heru Remote Control

Current temperature efficiency
Temperature of fresh air, extract air, exhaust air and indoor air via a room sensor
Supply air temperature after exchanger and external heater / cooler
The fan speed

Heating requirement, status
Cooling requirement, status

Relative air humidity (if sensor is connected)
If overpressure is on/off
If boost is on/off

A key aspect of a well planned, low energy MVHR system is the ducting type, design and the quality of installation.

Best practice is to use larger diameter, 125mm diameter branch lines and up to 250mm diameter main lines, which can carry the necessary high volumes of air at low velocity (depending on size of system).
Rigid, large diameter ducting is the preferred choice to provide a smooth flow of air, causing less noise (from both fans and air turbulence) and costs less to run. Foil backed insulated ducting in a cold space is essential to retain high heat efficiency.
Carefully considering the design and choice of installation materials ensures your MVHR system delivers the correct ventilation rate and heat efficiency to your home.
Manufactured in high quality steel our modern Supply & Extract Valves are designed to not produce down draft, ensuring a comfortable indoor climate.
