Hounslow and surrounding areas
Premises in Hounslow are often in mixed-use buildings with shared roofs and tight access, so outdoor unit positions are agreed early.
We work across Hounslow's postcode districts, including TW3, TW4 and TW6. We also cover Isleworth, Heston and Richmond, all within easy reach of Hounslow. Buildings across London range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.

Points to plan for in Hounslow
Sizing
The curtain should cover the full door width and reach the floor at the right velocity.
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.
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
Working hours
Most Hounslow businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Types of premises we cover in Hounslow
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.

Compliance in England: 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).
