    Hi Benviewboy,

    The system is still working for us with no issues. If i had to do it again then yes i would. After 3+ years in the house i don't really notice it (or think about it anymore) which i can only assume is a good thing at this stage.

    sorry for updating old thread.
    mine is in and functional close to 5 years. ZERO issues. i clean the fan out once a year with vacuum. its a very simple concept. and works well for Ireland i think. its only being off for possibly 1 hour in 5 years total...(for cleaning!)
    mine is hanging in the attic. cant hear it at all.

    Hi all,
    Just wondering if having DCV negates the need to have a cooker extractor fan in the kitchen?

    No
    You need a dedicated mechanical extract from cooker, a supplier of DCv should be able to advise.

    There are recirculation units, but if this is a new build, look at mvhr.

    agreed. they all advise a dedicated out, or carbon filter on your hood. i dont think any MVHR or DC would take the grease filled air from cooker.

    Hi,
    an older thread alright :)

    with the Aereco system, is it extracting heated air constantly ?
    Is it a very low extraction, pulling moisture laden air from rooms to extraction points ?
    And in a morning - are your bedrooms cold ? where the moisture controller vents were open and outside cold air has been pulled in all night. just curious.

    Thanks

    Am planning to retrofit my external walls & windows (currently same temp as outside - cavity block ) and really need some sort of HR or DCV.

    Has anyone any experience of the Lunos e2?

    They are in the wall vents with heat recovery that work in pairs, the motors reverse direction every 70 seconds so while one is drawing in fresh air the other is extracting stale air.

    I am looking for a ventilation solution for a 48m2 open plan kitchen living area. Any info/feedback would be appreciated.


    Hi, following from your post 6 years ago, did you use the Lunos. I'm looking at it for a bedroom and en-suite, retrofit. Curious to kow if it was satisfactory, reliable, noisy, effective, etc.
    Regards, Sean
