Your home needs ventilation, because ventilation gives you fresh air which is really important - especially for a family home. Lower moisture, higher oxygen levels - better air quality.
You can get fresh air by opening doors or windows, or you can install a system that gives fresh air even with doors and windows closed.
Ventilation is all about air quality - and Heat Pumps are all about air temperature - heating or cooling the air in your home.
Some people say that a ventilation system will heat your home at night or on a cold winter morning - but it won’t! On a cold 10 degree winter morning, there’s no heat in your roof to do that - you will definitely need a heat source for that, and that’s where a heat pump is brilliant for instant warmth.
Also - some people say that a ventilation system will cool your home on a hot day - but it won't! If your home is 28 degrees, and your roof is 40+ degrees, there isn’t any cooling hiding anywhere that a ventilation system can access. Even if your ventilation brings air from outside, that's probably at least 25 degrees on a hot day. You need a cooling source for that, and that’s where the air conditioning feature of a heat pump is totally irreplaceable.
But - there is actually a way to design up an integrated solution that gives you heating, cooling, and ventilation in a single system. Nice Air specialises in helping you balance your heating with ventilation, and your cooling with ventilation - for optimum comfort and efficiency.
Mould and condensation can occur around the home and workplace if there's damp or stale air. Ventilation systems effectively remove stale air and moisture, and reducing allergens, and therefore can create a healthier, cleaner environment. But do keep in mind if you also have a heat source, or are using AC / Air Conditioning to cool - your ventilation system can impact efficiency.
With Nice Air you can enjoy fresh, clean air all year round with expert installation and support.

That's great news. You already have a ventilation solution - and it's more than likely to be a 'positive pressure' system that pumps air from your roof space into your house.
These systems can be very effective if designed and installed well, as long as they are maintained and serviced regularly - filtering roof air can be a dusty business!
But they don't work well with your heating or cooling sources. In other words, if you're running your heat pump, and your HRV/DVS - the ventilation system may actually be pumping the hot air you've paid for out of your house. That's not a great thing for efficiency, obviously.
At Nice Air we can assess all your current setup - and give options to move towards a more effective and far more efficient solution.

Positive pressure ventilation is the kind of ventilation system that HRV and DVS systems typically use. It's called positive pressure, because it is basically a system that pumps air into your home, causing an increase in air pressure that makes the old stale air in your home leave through window and door gaps. This is hugely effective in reducing moisture levels and freshening the air up - but on really cold days it can't heat you - and on very hot days it can't cool you. On those days you will more than likely be using a separate cooling or heating source too - and that's when the ventilation system and the heat pump start to work against each other.
