Before you book in New Malden
Heat source
Heat pump air curtains are usually cheaper to run than electric ones.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in New Malden 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.
Controls
Door contacts stop the unit running when the door is closed.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
Premises we work in around New Malden
- 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).
