Very happy with our Ventis system
Our Sydney inner west double brick semi detached home is south facing so lack of sunlight coming in, coldness in winter, dampness and poor ventilation caused mould to grow on the ceilings, on furniture and my son would constantly have watery eyes and runny nose. I heard about Ventis from a neighbour and we got our ventis installed about 3 years ago. We cleaned the mould away for the last time when the ventis system was switched on and it hasn’t come back since. My son’s allergies calmed down, no more watery eyes or constant runny nose. We also loved the added bonus in winter for reduced need to use out heaters and summer reduced use of AC. Very happy with our Ventis. has made our home so much more comfortable all year round.

Love my Ventis.
I have had the Ventis Filtration System working in my home for 12 months now. What attracted me to having it installed was the promise of better air quality, dust and mould reduction and overall a more energy efficient home. My two boys suffered badly from hayfever on a daily basis and as soon as the Ventis was introduced, the hayfever had disappeared.
I am so impressed with the Ventis Filtration System that I have no hesitation in recommending it if you desire a more cleaner, fresher, softer air quality in your home.
Love my Ventis. You will too.

Efficient air control
Since installing the Ventis system we find our home stays cooler in summer thereby reducing our need for air conditioning & in winter the house is degrees warmer than the outside temperature. It is very quiet & delivers exactly what is promised. We couldn’t live without it.

Great system - I added cooling this year
We have had Ventis roof cavity heating for about 4 years and love it. (I notice everyone says that.) The temperature differential is just a few degrees but it makes all the difference in our cold house - especially during the shoulder months before and after winter. It also delays our use of central heating (under floor) by several weeks and we turn it off so much sooner saving heaps on our gas bill. Just before Christmas 2017 we had the cooling extension added. This worked exactly as we had hoped - dropping the temperature by 2-4 degrees at ni...Read more
ght and keeping cool air moving around without a chill. We would have had to install air conditioning (that we hate) without it this hot summer. We had a glich after the installation - the system kept shutting down with an error signal. As this was over the Christmas break we thought we would be stuck but I was able to reset it several times (from Ventis website instructions) to get it going again. When I finally reported it, the guys came within a few days - not only fixed it but did a free upgrade on some parts. I just switched to winter mode today which reminded me to do this review.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Best money we have spent on our house in years!
We have had our Ventis system for almost a year now and we LOVE it! The air quality in our house is so much better, that was the first thing we noticed after having it installed, we had been out for a few hours and came back home to a "fresh" feeling house. It has really helped take the edge off the cold in winter and the heat in summer. We used AC a lot last summer ($$$$$$$!!) but did not use it once this summer due to having the Ventis. This has also helped reduce mould in our two bathrooms which was a bit of a problem for us. We don't really...Read more
change the settings much as its basically a set and forget, just a small tweak at the end of each season and its sorted. I have recommended this to a number of our friends and if we move to a new place I would 100% pay the money to have a Ventis system installed. I had great service all the way through, the installation team went above and beyond with the level of service for us as we were keen to get it in. Thanks Ventis, Love your work and product!Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

It helped my family
I researched for something to help reduce mould in our house as it was becoming rampant and we had the system installed 4 years ago. We have minimal mould now. And all I can say is it helped my sons asthma helped with my kidney issues and removed all condensation from the windows.
Mould is terribly bad for your health and anything that can help reduce or remove is worth the money and the noise.
I am very satisfied and yes it can be noisy and sometimes cold but these are a very small price to pay for your health.

Not perfect for everyone
Have had our Ventis system for nearly a year. While it was a benefit in winter, it was of no use in summer. We also had an issue with the odd mouse in the roof, for which we put out baits. The smell from decomposing mouse is not something I particularly like circulating around the house. So they now have filters that remove odor. Great! Or so I thought until I found out the price! $191.40! There must be someone out there who does 'non genuine' filters for Ventis systems. They do it for non genuine parts for just about everything else. Why not these filters? I have looked for hours on the internet without success. Surely a monopoly on such a thing is illegal.

This is stupid!!
I bought a home with this stupid system.. it is noisy and I can’t turn the frigging thing off... we have fans going 24/7 and we can’t sleep. Due to public holidays we can’t get in touch with anyone. Makes no difference to cool/heat. Absolutely no difference in air quality and yes we have mould. Waste of money and nothing but drama. Beware.

Brilliant Ventis
We have had a Ventis System for a few years now. We originally bought the system because of a dust allergy only to be delighted by finding it does things we had not contemplated. It keeps dust out of the house makes the bedrooms more comfortable at night and saves us a lot of money because we only run our air conditioner for short periods. We can keep windows shut and have fresh air circulating making the house mould and odour free. It does not replace air conditioning but saves running it about about 70% of the time. It cannot do much in the v...Read more
ery hot months so you still need some other form of heating and cooling. However for most of the years it makes our house very comfortable for very little expenditure. Because it creates a positive pressure it is continually blowing air out the gaps in windows and doors so most dust cannot get in. Very happy with this productSimilar opinion?

No good in a cold Climate
Sales men were very pushy with the product, that did put me off. But thought the concept was good, but...
The system is not suitable for the Canberra climate as it does not get warm enough in the roof space in winter.
My house is well sealed and feel the system can not push enough air in to be useful even in spring and Autumn
I have closed off the system, as I was losing more heat than gaining through the vents, and turned it off the power point.
Replacement filter price is over the top.
Maybe better for coastal areas where it does not get cold or need the air flow to help stop mold.
For me a total waste of a lot of money.........

Will be putting Ventis in my next house
Love the VentIs. Has stopped mould growing throughout the house. Has stopped major condensation issues. It was so bad we would grow moss on window sills. My sons asthma has improved as has my hay fever. Would recommend this to anyone with mould and condensation or health problems to get one. We are moving soon but I will be getting it installed at my new house as well.

Ventis really helps with our mould problem
After purchasing our home, we noticed that we had a problem with condensation and mould. Our son is an asthmatic and mould is one of his triggers, so we needed to do something about it quick smart. We had our Ventis system for 5 years now and it's been absolutely amazing, keeping our home free from condensation, mould, dust. It also regulates the temperature to be a few degrees lower or higher depending on the season, which allows us to limit the use of air-conditioning and heating. All in all I would say the system has paid for itself over the...Read more

The Best Investment
It is almost four years since my wife and I made the decision to have Ventis installed in our home. The feature which appealed to us most is that the system is based on a very simple observation; that the air in the loft of any house can be much warmer or much cooler than elsewhere in the house. This means that a comfortable temperature can be gained by just recirculating the air. Also, while that air is being redistributed, it is also being filtered, so the system provides health benefits as well! There are occasions when we still use our air...Read more
conditioning system, but those occasions are now less frequent and of shorter duration. As the fourth anniversary of Ventis approaches, we still firmly believe that this installation was the best and most effective home improvement investment we have ever made.Similar opinion?

I LOVE LOVE LOVE VENTIS!
We've had Ventis for around 5 years now and from day one our lives have been improved by having air that feels fresher than outside! The funny thing is that we'd never heard of it until a wonderful human knocked on our door and told us about it. The rep came over the next evening and it was a total 'no-brainer'! We have never looked back and are making sure there's a roof space when we downsize so that we can continue to enjoy the benefits of Ventis fresh air. As a mild asthmatic I found that my morning cough disappeared over night because Vent...Read more
is had removed the minute particles of irritating pollen/ mold particles with its medical grade filter. Honestly, 5 years later and I'm STILL happily recommending Ventis to strangers all over the place! (I really should be on commission! ;)) We usually have a party every June and I set Ventis running at a very low level just to keep the air fresh when there are around 60 people in the room. One year we experienced a one hour power outage during the party and WOW, Ventis had really been helping with that freshness! As a girl who likes to be comfortable, i used to have the air conditioning on for what felt like the whole summer and the whole winter. I never did find anyone else who's quarterly bill exceeded our $1800 one! My husband is delighted because not only does he have a very happy wife, the electricity bills have definitely reduced too. I am saddened to see some unhappy reviews about Ventis on this page and can only conclude that they don't have it switched on our something. I do hope those people soon learn how to use their systems and then they too can live happily ever after. I would be delighted for Ventis to pass on my number to anyone considering a purchase. Frankly, I can't see why anyone WOULDN'T want Ventis in their home! Many thanks to the inventor! :) Katherine St IvesSimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Terrible buy aircon don’t waste your money
I brought a ventis system just before Xmas 2016 the company went into receivership and the system stopped working took awhile to make contact after that but I replaced the fan box at my own expense which I was advised was faulty, now it never has worked properly at the start! It's out now I paid $5000 for this system and $3000. For my old installation in roof to be replaced because of the smell great idea if it worked ! I would recommend you don’t buy this product I’m having to go to the department of fair trade I really want it removed please don’t waste your time!

Very Happy
A few years ago we had a few systems installed as we have a large multi level home where one was not enough.
The Ventis works best on days of the year where you have large variations of temerature between the outdoors, your roof cavity and inside your home.
Although in summer and winter it has some benefit, we find the largest benefit is during Spring and Autumn when you have warm days and cool nights. Having fresh cool clean air pumped into the house is very nice helps us all sleep. It also means we don't use the air-con during this time reducing bills for this periods.
In summer it maily just pumps hot air from the roof space outside and in winter pumps warm air from the roof space into the home.

Great Product, makes your home feel fresh and comfortable
We've had a Ventis for 2 years and couldn't be happier. It takes the chill off the air in the winter and cools our home in summer. We'd estimate that we have reduced using our air conditioner by 50%. It is a great product and every home should have one.

I had a Ventis ventilation system installed in 2013. It involved a fan and ceiling ducts to four rooms in the house installed in the ceiling with ceiling, outdoor and indoor sensors and a control box.
In Goulburn where we have a double brick, well insulated house the system works beautifully. As the nights cool down in summer clean, cool air is pumped in overnight, refreshing the air in the house and cooling it down ensuring a comfortable night's sleep. In winter on sunny days, warm fresh air is pumped in to warm the house reducing heating co...Read more

Questions & Answers
wayne c.asked
Hi, I am in a house that is next to a slight noisy road. We keep windows shut most of the time and would like something to draw in fresh air from outside without opening the windows. Is Ventis going to be helpful for this purpose? Have a few questions appreciate if someone could answer.
- Since the attic is very hot in summer, is the hot air going to be taken into the house and make it hot?
- What is the electricity consumption for a Ventis system. Is it possible to program it to run on a particular time every day?
- How often does a filter last(e. g. how many processing hours etc.) and how much is it to change it?
- What is a rough cost of the system? Understand every house is different, are we looking at a few thousands or a lot more?
thanks Wayne

Hi Wayne,
Yes ventis can give you fresh air without opening the windows. In summer it runs at night because of the heat in the roof during the day. And in winter it runs at night. Its temperature controlled. It runs a 100kw fan so its about $10 per month. The filter needs to be changed every 12-15 months depending on running hours. It starts at $4500. Please feel free to email us on [email protected] if you need further information.
Pooran.asked
I had my filter changed and was away for a short while. On returning, we realised that the panel stated Fault #115- Damper not closed. Would this have anything to do at all with fact that the filter was changed and the Fault occured. I was informed by David at Chatswood that it was going to cost me $99, just to front up! Is that fair?

VentisVentis
Hi Pooran. We would have to determine why the fault is happening. The fault is most likely nothing to do with the filter change but if we do find that it is an related fault of course you wont get charged the call out fee. I can see your service is booked on 24/1/20, our electrician will be out to look at your system.
Lindaasked
Help! Our house has filled up with smoke from the bush fires. Only way for smoke to enter is through the Ventis vents. What can we do - vents don't close!

VentisVentis
Hi Linda, I'm sorry to hear that you are in an area with excessive smoke.
Please make sure your Ventis is switched off. The smell will be in the house but no particles will be able to by pass the filter.
Thanks Scott. It is off but we still have a smoke haze throughout the house. I've plugged up some of the vents with tea towels for now.
Smoke can enter via down lights, the space around them... tape them over. Through gaps around doors, poorly sealing around windows... through extraction fans that are not piped through the roof... If extraction fans are run on maximum they will draw smoke into your house through any crack or crevice
Hope this helps
