The steps for a project in Bangor, County Down
Heat loss survey
We assess fabric, glazing and ventilation to size for winter as well as summer. For sites in Bangor, County Down we confirm access and parking beforehand.
Design
Units are chosen for their heating output at low outdoor temperatures, not just their cooling rating.
Install
Outdoor units go where defrost water can drain safely and air flow is not restricted.
Set controls
Schedules and set-backs are configured so the system heats efficiently.
Local points to consider
Air direction
Warm air rises, so units are set to direct air down when heating.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Building fabric
Draughty or poorly insulated premises need more heating capacity; simple draught-proofing can reduce the size needed.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Bangor, County Down are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the council's planning service before work is booked.

In Northern Ireland, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under EU F-gas rules that apply in Northern Ireland, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
