The steps for a project in Hereford
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 Hereford we agree timings around your opening hours.
Set controls
Schedules and set-backs are configured so the system heats efficiently.
Points to plan for in Hereford
Winter output
Heating output falls as it gets colder outside, so we size against winter design temperatures.
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.
Air direction
Warm air rises, so units are set to direct air down when heating.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Hereford 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.
Premises we work in around Hereford
- Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.
- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.
Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).

Which postcodes do you cover in Hereford?
All of them, including HR1. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
Can air conditioning really heat a building?
Yes. Reverse-cycle air conditioning is a heat pump. Sized for heating, it can be the main heat source for many commercial premises.
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.
