From enquiry to handover in Walsall

What to think about in Walsall
Controls
Door contacts stop the unit running when the door is closed.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Walsall often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
Heat source
Heat pump air curtains are usually cheaper to run than electric ones.
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.
Types of premises we cover in Walsall
- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.

Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
