The steps for a project in Tamworth
Measure
We measure the opening and check wind exposure and existing heating.
Select
The right width, air velocity and heat source are chosen.
Install
The unit is mounted and connected to power, water or refrigerant. We keep work areas in Tamworth 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 Tamworth
Heat source
Heat pump air curtains are usually cheaper to run than electric ones.
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.
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.
