How PIV Works — The Science Behind Cleaner, Healthier Air
A Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) system is one of the simplest yet most effective ways to tackle condensation and black mould in UK homes.
It works by gently introducing a constant supply of filtered, fresh air — pushing out stale, humid air through natural leakage points like windows, vents, and doors.
This steady movement of air:
.Reduces humidity levels, stopping condensation before it forms
.Prevents mould spores from settling on walls and ceilings
.Balances air pressure, helping your home “breathe” naturally
.Improves air quality, removing allergens, dust, and pollutants
.Cuts heating costs, by circulating warmer, drier air evenly throughout the home
Modern PIV systems are quiet, energy-efficient, and maintenance-free.
They’re typically installed in the loft (for houses) or wall-mounted in flats and apartments, continuously circulating clean, filtered air 24/7.
💡 In short: a PIV system doesn’t mask condensation — it prevents it.
It transforms damp, musty spaces into dry, comfortable homes with noticeably fresher air.

✅Halifax Damp & Timber – Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) FAQs
What exactly does a PIV system do?
A PIV system gently pushes filtered, fresh air into your home — reducing humidity, preventing condensation, and improving air quality. It creates constant airflow so moisture and mould can’t build up.
Will a PIV system stop condensation and mould for good?
Yes — once installed, a properly balanced PIV unit prevents moisture from settling on cold walls and ceilings. It keeps humidity under control permanently, as long as filters are maintained every 3–5 years.
Is a PIV unit noisy or expensive to run?
Not at all. Modern PIV units are whisper-quiet and extremely energy efficient — typically costing less than £10 a year to run.
Where is a PIV unit installed?
In most homes, the unit sits neatly in the loft, with a ceiling diffuser in the hallway. For flats or properties without lofts, wall-mounted PIV systems work just as effectively.
How long does installation take?
Most PIV systems are installed within half a day, with minimal disruption to your home. We test humidity levels before and after to make sure airflow is perfect.
Do you cover areas outside Halifax?
Yes — we install PIV systems across Halifax, Huddersfield, Brighouse, Elland, Sowerby Bridge, Hebden Bridge, and all surrounding West Yorkshire areas.
