Installation of mechanical ventilation in Brussels: breathe healthy air while managing your energy consumption

VMC Installation in Brussels

In a well-insulated home, indoor air can become more polluted than outdoor air without an effective ventilation system. That’s why the installation of a mechanical ventilation system (Controlled Mechanical Ventilation) is now essential in Brussels. It ensures air renewal, limits humidity, improves comfort, and contributes to better energy performance. Avenir Rénovations supports you in the selection, installation, and maintenance of your mechanical ventilation system, in all municipalities of the capital.

Our services for VMC installation in Brussels

We offer complete ventilation solutions for houses, apartments, collective housing, or professional premises, adapted to the technical constraints of Brussels buildings.

Installation of single flow VMC

The single flow VMC ensures a permanent extraction of stale air in humid rooms:

  • economical system to purchase and install,
  • extraction vents in kitchen, bathroom, and toilet,
  • self-adjusting air inlets in living areas.

Ideal for light renovations or rarely occupied housing. We also install hygroregulated models for ventilation adjusted according to ambient humidity.

Installation of double flow VMC

The double flow VMC extracts stale air while supplying preheated fresh air via a heat exchanger:

  • better thermal and acoustic comfort,
  • heat recovery up to 90%,
  • filters incoming air (pollen, dust...).

This solution is ideal for heavy energy renovations or new constructions. It meets the highest standards of the PEB certificate.

Spot or decentralized ventilation

In some cases, we offer:

  • individual extractors in humid rooms (spot ventilation),
  • decentralized double flow VMC with a unit per room (ideal for renovation).

Each project is studied to propose the most efficient, sustainable, and suitable solution for your use.

FAQ – Installation of VMC in Brussels

Is VMC mandatory?

Yes, in all new or renovated housing subject to PEB regulations. In light renovation, it is highly recommended. Poorly ventilated housing can lead to significant issues.

Can I install a VMC myself?

Technically possible for some models, but you will not benefit from regional aid or reduced VAT. Poor installation can cause nuisances or overconsumption.

How long does the installation take?

Between 1 and 5 days depending on the chosen system and the building configuration. We intervene in a clean, quick, and coordinated manner.

Does a VMC require maintenance?

Yes. Filters must be cleaned or replaced regularly (every 3 to 12 months). Avenir Rénovations offers a suitable maintenance service.

Is it noisy?

No. Modern VMCs are silent. We choose acoustically efficient models and ensure proper insulation during installation.
