Large-Scale Residential System Installation
MVHR design and installation across multi-unit residential developments, coordinated with main contractor programmes.
-
Programme-led delivery
Installation is sequenced unit-by-unit or core-by-core to match the main contractor's handover schedule.
-
Design coordination at scale
Our design team works from BIM models to catch riser and service clashes before they reach site.
-
Standardised, repeatable installs
Proven duct layouts per unit type keep quality consistent and install times predictable across large developments.
-
Unit-by-unit commissioning
Each apartment or unit is commissioned individually so handover isn't held up waiting on the whole block.
Large-scale residential MVHR across London developments
Domani Ventilation Services delivers mechanical ventilation and heat recovery for multi-unit housing schemes, apartment blocks, and high-rise residential projects throughout London and Greater London. We coordinate with main contractors, M&E designers, and handover programmes so ventilation installation keeps pace with build milestones.
Our large residential capability covers primary and secondary ductwork, fan coil units, heat recovery ventilation, and extraction systems tailored to each development’s design and performance requirements.
Six reasons developers specify MVHR on large residential schemes
1. Future-proof compliance
MVHR helps developments meet current and emerging ventilation and energy standards, reducing the risk of costly retrofit work later in a building’s life.
2. Lower defect risk from moisture
Controlled ventilation manages humidity levels across occupied units, helping to limit condensation-related issues that can lead to warranty claims and reputational risk.
3. Premium indoor environments
Filtered fresh air, stable temperatures, and quiet operation support the comfort expectations of buyers and tenants in mid-market and luxury residential schemes.
4. Improved energy performance
Heat recovery reduces ventilation-related heat loss, supporting Part L objectives and lower running costs for residents.
5. Acoustic comfort
Correctly specified units, duct routing, and acoustic lagging — such as 25mm Armaflex insulation where required — keep ventilation noise to a minimum in residential settings.
6. Market differentiation
A properly commissioned MVHR installation signals build quality, sustainability, and attention to occupant wellbeing — factors that matter on competitive London developments.
How we deliver large residential ventilation projects
Programme-led installation
We track materials, labour, and work fronts against the contractor programme. Installations follow agreed design packages and unit-type layouts so quality stays consistent across hundreds of apartments.
Quality assurance at commissioning
Commissioning includes airflow verification, system balancing, and QA sign-off documentation. Each unit can be handed over individually so practical completion is not delayed by ventilation snagging across the whole block.
Servicing and maintenance for developments
We provide MVHR servicing and maintenance for large residential portfolios. Planned inspections, filter management, cleaning, adjustment, and test reports help keep communal and in-unit systems performing as designed. Learn more on our commissioning and servicing page.
Recent large-scale residential projects
Our London portfolio includes mechanical ventilation for major residential schemes such as Southbank Place Building 3 (301 apartments), Battersea Power Station Phase 3A (308 apartments), Solar Serena Sunrise (175 homes), and Napier and New Plymouth House (110 units).
