HRV - block duct

AstraMonti · 2014-02-24 09:29:41

Hi there, One of the bedrooms is ensuite and we have an extraction hrv duct in there. We want to get rid of the bathroom and create a bigger room. What should we do with the duct that goes in the bathroom? Is it safe to block it or we need to reroute it?

i would suggest you need to speak to the installer in the first instance to get their advice, centralised HRV systems need to be balanced so there maybe some adjusting to do - i dont think its as simple as blocking up the duct, but it is defintely possible and shouldnt be too expensive. Also, depending on how long the system is installed, you dont want to impact on warranty.
