Before you book in Aylesbury
Controls
Door contacts stop the unit running when the door is closed.
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.
Heat source
Heat pump air curtains are usually cheaper to run than electric ones.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Aylesbury are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
