What to think about in Sheffield
Sizing
The curtain should cover the full door width and reach the floor at the right velocity.
Working hours
Most Sheffield businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
Leased premises
If your Sheffield 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.
Typical premises in Sheffield
- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
- Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.
In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
