From enquiry to handover in Chessington
Measure
We measure the opening and check wind exposure and existing heating.

The right width, air velocity and heat source are chosen.
Install
The unit is mounted and connected to power, water or refrigerant. In Chessington we agree timings around your opening hours.
Set up
Door contacts and controls are set so it runs only when needed.
What to think about in Chessington
Heat source
Heat pump air curtains are usually cheaper to run than electric ones.
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.
Controls
Door contacts stop the unit running when the door is closed.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Chessington 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.

- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.

In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
