How it works in Potters Bar
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 Potters Bar we agree timings around your opening hours.
Set controls
Schedules and set-backs are configured so the system heats efficiently.
Things to check in Potters Bar
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.
Winter output
Heating output falls as it gets colder outside, so we size against winter design temperatures.
Working hours
Most Potters Bar businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.

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.

They frost in cold, damp weather and run short defrost cycles automatically. Drainage is planned so the water does not freeze on a path.
