Villavent Heat Recovery System Sorgente Cornish Holiday Cottage

Heat recovery system

We added the luxury of a Villavent heat recovery system in the cottage which aims to meet targets of low energy consumption but also importantly keeps the home fresh and dry removing condensation and dust, ideal for those whose may have an allergy such as asthma.

It automatically detects when there is steam in the bathroom and the Kitchen and continues to replenish
