How a job in Wrexham works
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 Wrexham 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 Wrexham
Exposure
Windy entrances need more powerful units or a lobby.
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.
Heat source
Heat pump air curtains are usually cheaper to run than electric ones.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Wrexham are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
