Points to plan for in Lancaster
Downtime
Each unit is out of action for about an hour while it is cleaned.
Leased premises
If your Lancaster premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Smells
Musty smells usually mean biological growth in the coil or tray; a deep clean and drain treatment normally cures them.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Lancaster are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
