Before you book in Stornoway
Frequency
Most units need a deep clean every one to two years; kitchens and salons more often.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Smells
Musty smells usually mean biological growth in the coil or tray; a deep clean and drain treatment normally cures them.
Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
Typical premises in Stornoway

- Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.
- Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.
Two rules matter for most businesses in Scotland: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for systems of 12 kW or more.
