HRV Canterbury
Canterbury covers everything from the established suburbs of Christchurch city, through the rebuilt streets of the eastern suburbs, out to the fast-growing satellite towns of Rolleston, Rangiora and Lincoln. Christchurch's cold, still winters and sharp frosts mean condensation and mould are a fact of life in a huge number of Canterbury homes, old and new alike.
In the city's older weatherboard and brick homes, particularly across the eastern suburbs, poor insulation and single glazing let heat escape fast and let moisture build up just as quickly. In the newer developments around Rolleston, Lincoln and Rangiora, tighter modern construction traps that moisture indoors instead, so the air can feel stale and heavy even in a home only a few years old.
Our Canterbury team sees both ends of that spectrum every week, and we fit ventilation, heating and cooling to the home in front of us rather than a one-size-fits-all package.

Products & Services
Home Ventilation
HRV Classic and HRV Classic Pro balanced ventilation systems draw in fresh, filtered air and push out the stale, moisture-laden air that causes condensation and mould, a common issue in both older villas and newer apartments. An optional Summer Kit and Vortex extractor fan can be added alongside your core system.

Heat Pumps & Air Conditioning
We install genuine, HRV-stocked brands only: Panasonic, Mitsubishi, Haier, Nobo and Pioneer. Whether you're heating a one-bedroom apartment or a full family home, we'll size and specify the right unit for your home rather than upselling you into something bigger than you need.

Hot Water Heat Pumps
HRV also installs Haier and Panasonic hot water heat pumps, a more efficient way to heat your household water than a standard hot water cylinder. Ask the team about current offers, as pricing changes from time to time.
