How we work in Staveley
Measure
We measure the opening and check wind exposure and existing heating. For sites in Staveley we confirm access and parking beforehand.

Local points to consider
Heat source
Heat pump air curtains are usually cheaper to run than electric ones.
Working hours
Most Staveley businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Sizing
The curtain should cover the full door width and reach the floor at the right velocity.
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.
