Nuaire Flatmaster & Drimaster Positive Input Ventilation (PIV)
Nuaire provides the UK’s leading solution for condensation prevention.
Nuaire’s Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) takes fresh air from outside, cleans the air, and discharges it into your home creating an environment in which condensation and mould cannot exist, while indoor pollutants including harmful Radon gas and carbon monoxide are expelled through natural gaps found in every home.
What’s more allergens are kept to a minimum and outdoor pollutants such as pollen and traffic fumes are kept out. The results are a fresh and healthy indoor environment.

Nuaire is currently experiencing extended lead times, and fluctuating costs due to a worldwide shortage of components. Please call 01608 811707 or contact us here for confirmed pricing and delivery dates.

Nuaire Positive Input Ventilation (PIV)
Poor Ventilation – What’s the Problem?
Poor ventilation is a wide-scale problem. It is estimated that one in five UK households are poorly ventilated, leading to problems with streaming windows, mould growth and poor indoor air quality. Energy-efficiency measures such as cavity wall insulation and double-glazing make homes warmer by sealing in the heat. But as a result, the humid, stale air becomes trapped inside the home leading to condensation and the appearance of black mould.
Through everyday life (cooking, cleaning, breathing) the average family produces over 17 pints of moisture a day. This condensates on cold surfaces and leads to mould growth, which is not only damaging to the fabric of the building but creates unnecessary costs.
What’s more poor indoor air quality has significant impact on the health.
So What’s the Solution?
Positive Input Ventilation (PIV) has become the UK’s most popular method of low-energy, whole-home ventilation, and is now installed in over 1 million homes in the UK.
Nuaire’s PIV systems create a fresh and healthy indoor environment by gently introducing fresh, filtered air into the home at a continuous low rate ensuring that old, contaminated moisture-laden air is continuously diluted, displaced, and replaced with good quality air, eliminating condensation, dampness and forcing out indoor pollutants such as Radon gas and carbon monoxide. The result is improved air quality and a healthy living environment in which condensation cannot exist.
It can also be used to ventilate basements, cellars and other areas that would benefit from a continuous supply of fresh, filtered air.
