A familiar moment

The renovation team trying to plan ventilation before finishes begin

You are commissioning another system when a homeowner calls about whole-house ventilation during a deep renovation. Ziverly can capture the property type and occupancy, rooms and intended work, whether the enquiry concerns MVHR, MEV or another system as stated by the caller, existing ventilation and heating, project and design stage, drawings, calculations or reports available, other professionals, access and preferred response. It does not diagnose condensation, mould or indoor-air concerns, size or design a system, calculate airflow, heat recovery or electrical loads, confirm duct routes, equipment, performance, noise, compliance or certification, quote, accept the work or promise timing. Immediate electrical, fire or building hazards need the appropriate urgent route.

The useful handover

Enough context to respond properly.

The aim is to welcome the caller, gather the details you decide matter and keep the same enquiry easy to follow until the work is resolved.

  • Who is calling and how to reach them.
  • What they need help with and where.
  • What should happen next, without inventing a response time.

Where the pressure tends to gather

Make space for the work without leaving the caller in the dark.

Think about the calls that interrupt you most often. Ziverly can follow the questions and boundaries you choose, then leave the details ready for your judgement.

The system is part of the whole building

Layout, airtightness, heating, fabric, occupancy and project stage can all affect the professional design conversation.

A symptom does not identify a ventilation solution

Condensation, odours or stale rooms can be captured without diagnosing a cause or promising that one system will resolve it.

Commissioning needs concentration

Measurements and balancing cannot be mixed safely with an improvised intake call.

What a better handover can change

Less interruption now, a clearer thread afterwards.

The project context arrives together

Review the property, rooms, existing systems, project stage, documents, professional team and access.

No performance claim is made early

Your approved process can keep diagnosis, design, airflow, equipment, electrical work and compliance subject to qualified review.

The next technical question is not lost

Add the drawing, survey or system detail you want Ziverly to ask if the project contact returns.

Adiel, The Spirit of Service

Someone calling about domestic mechanical ventilation and MVHR enquiries is a person asking for help, not a conversion statistic. A calm welcome can make the next step easier for both of you.

Before, during and after the call

From first ring to finished follow-up.

Ziverly can do more than take a message. You stay in control of when it answers, how you hear about each call and what context is available if the customer rings again.

  1. You decide which calls reach Ziverly.

    Use the call-diversion options supported by your mobile or landline service, such as no reply, unreachable, busy or rejected. Turn them off again whenever you want to answer normally, or use cover for evenings, weekends, holidays and unexpected time away.

  2. Your call details meet you where you are.

    Choose email or SMS alerts where enabled, then open Ziverly to review the summary, transcript, recording where available, status and priority.

    Review the property, rooms, existing ventilation, project stage, documents and professional team in the App summary, transcript or recording where available.

  3. The next conversation starts further forwards.

    Add an AI-facing note when you want Ziverly to have more context if the same known caller rings again. Separate private notes stay private.

    Add an AI-facing note with the agreed design discussion or the drawing, survey or system question needed before the next call.

  4. Open calls do not have to rely on memory.

    Choose a daily or weekly email summary of calls still waiting for attention, at the time that best fits your working day.

  5. You can check in by phone, too.

    With Owner Voice Access enabled, call your own Ziverly number, verify your PIN and manage the calls you are allowed to see.

    After commissioning is complete, use PIN-protected Owner Voice Access to hear which ventilation enquiries remain open and change a status or priority.

Use your own numbers

What might unanswered calls represent for your business?

If an average ventilation installation is worth around £1,800 to your business, even one suitable enquiry can be worth understanding properly. Replace that example with your own figures below.

The result is an illustration based only on what you enter. It is not a forecast, a promise that Ziverly will recover the work or a reason to accept an unsuitable job.

This simple multiplication does not account for timing, capacity, costs, cancellations, repeat work or whether another response would have changed the outcome.

Useful boundaries for call handling

Let Ziverly gather details without overstepping your expertise.

Building Regulations and, for some projects, planning permission apply; requirements and self-certification arrangements differ across the UK nations.

You remain responsible for the advice you give, the work you accept and the safety, eligibility and professional checks your business requires.

A few practical questions

What would you want to know before starting?

Use these answers to decide where Ziverly could help and where the conversation should always return to you.

Can Ziverly say which ventilation system the property needs?

No. It gathers the property and project context; assessment, design and specification remain with competent professionals.

Will it diagnose condensation or poor air quality?

No. Caller observations can be captured, but cause, health significance and remedies require appropriate assessment.

Can it promise airflow, noise or energy performance?

No. Calculations, installation, commissioning, certification, price and programme remain with your professional process.

Try the smallest useful version

Begin with the calls that interrupt your working day most often.

Choose what Ziverly should know, what it should never promise and which details make a follow-up genuinely useful. Creating an account is free, so you can look around before deciding when you want Ziverly to handle a call.

No monthly or annual plan is required and there is no fixed-term commitment. Add pay-as-you-go credit only when you are ready to use it.
