Fan upgrades and better controls can cut energy use significantly on older units.
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.
Hygiene
Drip trays and coils must be kept clean to avoid biological growth.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Berkshire are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
