How it works in Long Eaton
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 Long Eaton we agree timings around your opening hours.
Set up
Door contacts and controls are set so it runs only when needed.
Things to check in Long Eaton
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Long Eaton 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.
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.
Who we work with in Long Eaton
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.
- Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.
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).
