How a job in Kirkby works

  1. Heat loss survey

    We assess fabric, glazing and ventilation to size for winter as well as summer. For sites in Kirkby we confirm access and parking beforehand.

  2. Design

    Units are chosen for their heating output at low outdoor temperatures, not just their cooling rating.

  3. Install

    Outdoor units go where defrost water can drain safely and air flow is not restricted.

  4. 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 Kirkby 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.

Winter output

Heating output falls as it gets colder outside, so we size against winter design temperatures.

Neighbours and noise

Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.

Premises we work in around Kirkby

  • Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.
  • Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.

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.

Which postcodes do you cover in Kirkby?

Will we still need other heating?

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.
