Why clean filters and replace them on time?
Regular cleaning and timely replacement of the filters in your MVHR is essential for protecting your ventilation unit, maintaining efficient operation and extending the life of the system.
A properly functioning ventilation system is essential for maintaining a healthy indoor climate in your home. That is why it is important to clean the filters of your MVHR regularly and replace them in good time. But why?
Protecting your ventilation unit
The main function of ventilation filters is to protect your ventilation unit. By trapping dust particles, the filters prevent them from reaching and damaging the mechanical parts of the unit.. Without this protection, your ventilation unit would wear out more quickly and possibly break down.
Efficiency and lifespan of your system
A clogged filter causes your ventilation system to work harder to move the same amount of air. This not only increases energy consumption, but can also shorten the life of the system. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of filters help your ventilation system to operate efficiently for longer.
Healthy and comfortable living environment
Filters contribute to cleaner air by capturing dust particles. Keep in mind, however, that they do not block all pollen, viruses and bacteria. This helps to keep the ventilation ducts clean and prevent the accumulation of dust and bacteria. Regular cleaning and replacement of the filters ensures that the air quality in your home remains high and you can enjoy a healthy and comfortable living environment.
How to clean the filters?
Cleaning your filters is easy and can be done by yourself. We recommend doing this at least every three months, but ideally you should do it monthly. How to clean your filter:
Vacuuming: Remove the filters from your ventilation unit and use a vacuum cleaner to remove as much dust as possible.
