Air quality
HRV & home ventilation in Surrey and the Lower Mainland
Newer homes are built tight, which is great for heating bills and bad for stale air, condensation and smells. An HRV brings in fresh air and keeps most of the heat you already paid for.

What’s included
Ventilation & HRVs: what we do
HRV installation
Heat recovery ventilators sized and balanced for the house, tied into your ductwork or run on their own.
HRV service
Core cleaning, filter changes, drain checks and airflow balancing.
Bathroom exhaust
Quiet fans ducted outside properly, not dumped into the attic.
Kitchen exhaust & make-up air
Range hood ducting, and make-up air for big hoods that need it.
Dryer venting
Short, smooth, safe dryer vent runs that dry clothes faster.
Condensation problems
We find why windows are sweating or rooms smell musty and fix the airflow.
Your home may need better ventilation if
- Windows are wet inside every winter morning
- Bathrooms stay steamy long after a shower
- Cooking smells hang around for hours
- There's mould on window frames or ceilings
- The air feels stale or stuffy
- The HRV hasn't been cleaned in years

What does an HRV do?
It swaps stale indoor air for fresh outdoor air and passes both through a core, so the fresh air picks up most of the heat from the air going out. You get fresh air without a big hit on your heating bill.
How often should an HRV be cleaned?
Check the filters every few months and clean the core about once a year. A clogged HRV moves very little air and can freeze up in winter.
HRV or ERV, which do I need?
In the Lower Mainland, an HRV is the right pick for most homes. An ERV also moves some moisture and can make sense in very tight homes or where winter air gets too dry. We'll tell you which fits.
Can you add an HRV to an older home?
Usually, yes. We can tie it into existing forced-air ducts or run a simple dedicated system.
Reviews
Customers in the Lower Mainland
“Jas remained professional in his communication, he remained accurate on pricing as well as the step by step process. When he says he will be on site for a certain time, he stands by it.”
“We had a furnace emergency on a freezing weekend … had us back to full heat the same day. Fair pricing, no upselling.”
“I called Jas and one hour later he was at my house and started right away fixing the AC. Within 30 minutes my AC was back on.”
