MVHR outlets condensation


Recommended Posts

I have installed my MVHR and is going to be fully commissioned on Tuesday 

 

The couple of days I’ve found quite of bit of condensation coming out 2/3 of the outlets. I am guessing this is because majority of the pipes and vents are not properly insulated in the loft and the heating is on low.

 

when the system is fully commissioned and turned on Tuesday will this stop all condensation built up even though the ducts are fully insulated yet?

 

it’s making wet patches on the ceiling and conscious it will ruin the paint when I do it.

 

many Thanks

My view is install fully, then run. Don't run part installed.

The MVHR is fully installed, it’s just the loft insulation that is only half done 

 

Do you mean wait until fully insulated too?

 

We are not living there currently

So to be pedantic, it's not fully installed. Not sure what temperature you currently have, but we had -3 the other night and a few nights hovering around zero, snow and sleet yesterday, -2 tonight.  So the system will generate plenty of condensation, if only half insulated.
