How it works in Newton Abbot
Measure
We measure the opening and check wind exposure and existing heating.
Select
The right width, air velocity and heat source are chosen.

The unit is mounted and connected to power, water or refrigerant. We keep work areas in Newton Abbot screened and tidy at the end of each day.
Set up
Door contacts and controls are set so it runs only when needed.
Things to check in Newton Abbot
Sizing
The curtain should cover the full door width and reach the floor at the right velocity.
Leased premises
If your Newton Abbot 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.
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Newton Abbot 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.
