Things to check in Strabane
Heat source
Heat pump air curtains are usually cheaper to run than electric ones.
Leased premises
If your Strabane 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.
Working hours
Most Strabane businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
