How a job in Felixstowe works
Heat loss survey
We assess fabric, glazing and ventilation to size for winter as well as summer. For sites in Felixstowe 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.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Felixstowe 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.
Defrost water
Outdoor units shed water and ice when they defrost. They need a drained position away from walkways.
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.

- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.

Two rules matter for most businesses in England: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for more than 12 kW of air conditioning.

All of them, including IP11. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
Do outdoor units ice up?
They frost in cold, damp weather and run short defrost cycles automatically. Drainage is planned so the water does not freeze on a path.
Is it cheaper than electric heaters?
In most cases, yes. A heat pump delivers several kWh of heat per kWh of electricity, while panel heaters deliver one. Actual savings depend on the system, building and tariff.
