From enquiry to handover in Caernarfon

Local points to consider
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Caernarfon often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
Sizing
The curtain should cover the full door width and reach the floor at the right velocity.
Leased premises
If your Caernarfon 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.
Typical premises in Caernarfon
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.

- Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.
Compliance in Wales: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
