For a self-install where you are the owner occupier, eBay.

To balance my MVHR system I purchased a cheap anemometer with a flow function and a reasonable cross section across the vane. It was coupled to air terminals with a self made cardboard hood.

I had encouraging results using this method when commissioning my own relatively simple system. After balancing, measured airflow rates for all individual terminals were very close to the design flow rates (with allowance for ductwork resistance built into the calculations).
