We measure the opening and check wind exposure and existing heating.

Things to check in Tipton
Controls
Door contacts stop the unit running when the door is closed.
Leased premises
If your Tipton 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.
Sizing
The curtain should cover the full door width and reach the floor at the right velocity.
Working hours
Most Tipton businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Premises we work in around Tipton
