There are various types of PIV. The Drimaster-Eco range is Dorset Electrical Solutions’ market-leading product created for 2 and 3-storey homes with lofts. The Flatmaster is developed for flats, apartments and basements. These easy-to-install and maintain ranges are also economical and cost effective, making them the perfect solution for both brand-new developments and retrofit applications.
Fresh, filtered air is drawn through the near silent unit situated in the loft area of the home. Clean air is then pushed through a diffuser situated on the landing or hallway and dispersed through the home. This positive pressure pushes the humid and stale air out of your home through trickle vents and any gaps in and around your home.
PIV systems continuously introduce fresh outdoor air into the living spaces of a building, which helps dilute and remove indoor air pollutants such as dust, allergens, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This can lead to a healthier and more comfortable indoor environment, particularly for individuals with respiratory issues or allergies.
Positive Input Ventilation systems can effectively control condensation and dampness issues in homes. By introducing warm, dry air from outside, they raise the indoor temperature and reduce relative humidity, which helps prevent condensation on cold surfaces like windows, walls, and ceilings. This can help prevent mold growth and damage to the building’s structure.
They use low-energy fans to introduce fresh air, and the warm air from outside can help reduce the need for heating during cold seasons. By maintaining a more stable indoor temperature and reducing the reliance on energy-intensive dehumidifiers or air conditioning, PIV systems can lead to energy savings and lower utility bills.
PIV systems promote passive ventilation by encouraging the natural movement of air through the building. This can reduce the need for mechanical ventilation systems, which can be noisy and require maintenance. Passive ventilation can also help maintain a more consistent and comfortable indoor temperature.

PIV is a ventilation system that uses a fan to draw fresh outdoor air into a building, improving air quality and reducing humidity and condensation.
PIV systems work by introducing filtered outdoor air into the home through a strategically placed inlet, typically in the loft or roof space. This positive pressure pushes out stale indoor air, improving circulation.
PIV systems can help reduce condensation, mold growth, and indoor air pollutants. They also promote better overall air quality and comfort in your home.
PIV systems can help reduce condensation, mold growth, and indoor air pollutants. They also promote better overall air quality and comfort in your home.
PIV systems are generally suitable for most homes, including flats, houses, and apartments. They can be particularly beneficial in properties with condensation and air quality issues.
PIV systems are designed to operate quietly, and their noise level is typically minimal. You can expect them to be quieter than traditional extractor fans.
While some homeowners may be able to install a PIV system themselves, it is often recommended to have a professional install it to ensure it is done correctly and meets local building codes.
PIV systems usually require minimal maintenance. It’s advisable to clean or replace the filters periodically and ensure the system is functioning properly.
PIV systems can complement other ventilation methods, such as trickle vents and extractor fans, to create a comprehensive ventilation strategy for your home.
Yes, PIV systems are generally energy-efficient as they use a low-power fan to circulate air. They can also help reduce heating costs by preventing heat loss due to excessive ventilation.
