Ventilation and moisture-control equipment for renovation projects, bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, basements, apartments and enclosed residential spaces.
← Back to VentilationVMC units and humidity extraction devices remove moist, stale and polluted air from wet rooms and enclosed spaces. They help reduce condensation, mould formation, bad odours, corrosion, material degradation and long-term humidity damage.
Centralised mechanical extraction units for houses and apartments, commonly used for bathrooms, toilets, kitchens and laundry rooms.
VMC systems with automatic airflow adjustment based on humidity levels.
Local wall or ceiling extraction fans for direct humidity removal after showering or bathing.
Extraction solutions for kitchens, laundry rooms, storage spaces and utility rooms.
Local ventilation units for renovation projects where central duct installation is difficult or expensive.
Components that allow fresh air to enter and move through the building toward extraction points.
Ducting components used to connect extraction points, VMC units and outside discharge.
Equipment and accessories used to reduce mould risk, condensation and stagnant air.
The correct VMC or extraction solution depends on the room type, humidity load, duct route, noise level, available wall openings and whether continuous ventilation or local extraction is required.
| Solution | Best For | Main Advantage | Important Check | Typical Renovation Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single-Flow VMC Unit | Bathrooms, toilets, kitchens, laundry rooms | Continuous extraction from multiple wet rooms | Duct route, air inlets, airflow balance and maintenance access | Apartment or house ventilation upgrade |
| Humidity-Controlled VMC | Bathrooms, shower rooms, laundry areas | Automatically increases extraction when humidity rises | Sensor location, control logic and airflow capacity | Moisture-control renovation and mould-risk reduction |
| Bathroom Extraction Fan | Small bathrooms, toilets, wet rooms | Simple local humidity extraction | Noise, timer/humidity function and backdraft shutter | Bathroom renovation or toilet extraction |
| Kitchen & Utility Extraction | Kitchens, laundry rooms, storage and utility rooms | Removes vapour, odours and humid air at source | Grease, duct route, filters and outside discharge | Kitchen renovation, laundry-room extraction |
| Decentralised Ventilation Unit | Bedrooms, living rooms, studios, offices, basements | Room-by-room ventilation without central ductwork | Wall opening, acoustic comfort and heat-recovery option | Renovation where central ducts are difficult |
| Air Inlets & Transfer Grilles | Windows, doors, walls and transfer zones | Provides the air path needed for extraction to work | Airflow path, acoustic comfort and pressure balance | Supporting component for all extraction systems |
| Ducting & Accessories | VMC routes, bathroom extraction, kitchen extraction | Connects extraction points to outside discharge | Duct diameter, bends, leakage, insulation and cleaning access | Complete ventilation installation package |
Before requesting a quote, first identify the room type, moisture load, duct route, available wall or roof outlet, noise sensitivity and whether the installation needs simple local extraction or continuous VMC ventilation.
For a single bathroom, toilet or small wet room, a humidity-controlled extract fan is often the simplest and most budget-friendly first solution.
For apartments or homes with several wet rooms, a single-flow VMC unit gives better continuous extraction than separate isolated fans.
For mould risk, condensation or poorly ventilated bathrooms, choose humidity-controlled extraction instead of manual-only ventilation.
If central ducting is impossible or too expensive, decentralised wall units can solve ventilation room by room.
To avoid unnecessary back-and-forth, clients should collect the following information before contacting Systems Studio for ventilation advice or installation planning.
VMC and extraction systems require coordination between electrical supply, control wiring, duct routing, acoustic comfort, air inlets, extraction points, maintenance access and airflow balancing.
In real renovation work, correct air supply is as important as extraction. A fan cannot extract properly if the room or apartment has no controlled air inlet path.
