How we work in Harwich
Heat loss survey
We assess fabric, glazing and ventilation to size for winter as well as summer.
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. In Harwich we agree timings around your opening hours.
Set controls
Schedules and set-backs are configured so the system heats efficiently.
Before you book in Harwich
Defrost water
Outdoor units shed water and ice when they defrost. They need a drained position away from walkways.
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.
Winter output
Heating output falls as it gets colder outside, so we size against winter design temperatures.
Working hours
Most Harwich businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Types of premises we cover in Harwich
- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.

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

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.
