The steps for a project in Kilmarnock
Measure
We measure the opening and check wind exposure and existing heating.
Select
The right width, air velocity and heat source are chosen.
Install
The unit is mounted and connected to power, water or refrigerant. In Kilmarnock we agree timings around your opening hours.
Set up
Door contacts and controls are set so it runs only when needed.
Local points to consider
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
Leased premises
If your Kilmarnock 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.
Controls
Door contacts stop the unit running when the door is closed.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Kilmarnock 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.
