What are PIV Units?
PIV units, or Positive Input Ventilation units, are ventilation systems designed to improve indoor air quality.
PIV Units also reduce moisture-related issues in buildings, particularly residential properties.
These units typically consist of several key components
PIV units offer a simple and effective solution for enhancing indoor air quality and comfort in residential buildings
Fan Unit
The heart of the PIV system is a fan unit installed in the loft or attic space of the building. This fan draws air from outside the building, typically through a roof vent or duct, and pushes it into the living spaces.
Filters
PIV units are equipped with filters to remove dust, pollen, and other particles from the incoming air. These filters help to improve indoor air quality by trapping airborne pollutants before they enter the building.

Distribution System
Once the air is filtered, it is distributed into the living spaces of the building through ceiling diffusers, wall vents, or other openings. The distribution system ensures that the fresh air is evenly distributed throughout the building, promoting better ventilation and air circulation.
Controls
PIV units may come with controls or settings that allow users to adjust the airflow rate, fan speed, or other parameters based on their preferences and the specific requirements of the building.
Optional Features
Some PIV units may include additional features such as heat recovery, humidity sensors, or programmable timers to further enhance their performance and energy efficiency.
