Working in Torquay
In Torquay, typical commercial premises include town-centre shops and offices, surgeries, gyms and units on business parks. Exeter is about 29 km away.
That includes premises in TQ2 and the surrounding districts. We also work in nearby Paignton, Newton Abbot and Exmouth. Buildings across Devon range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.
Included as standard
- Heat loss and heat gain assessment
- Units selected for low-temperature heating output

How a job in Torquay works
Heat loss survey
We assess fabric, glazing and ventilation to size for winter as well as summer. For sites in Torquay 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.
Points to plan for in Torquay
Defrost water
Outdoor units shed water and ice when they defrost. They need a drained position away from walkways.
Working hours
Most Torquay businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Air direction
Warm air rises, so units are set to direct air down when heating.
Leased premises
If your Torquay premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Types of premises we cover in Torquay
- 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.
