The steps for a project in Airdrie
Check the void
We confirm void depth, grid size and any obstructions such as beams, sprinkler pipes or ductwork.
Set positions
Cassettes are placed against the lighting and grid layout so air reaches the whole space.
Hang and connect
Units are hung on drop rods, connected to pipework and the condensate line. We keep work areas in Airdrie screened and tidy at the end of each day.
Test and commission
The condensate pump is water-tested, the system pressure tested and charged, and air directions set.
Things to check in Airdrie
Condensate
Most cassettes include a pump. The discharge still needs a route to a drain, which we design at survey.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Airdrie 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.
Ceiling grid
Compact cassettes drop into a 600 mm grid; full-size units need the grid adapting around a larger panel.
Working hours
Most Airdrie businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.

All of them, including KY10 and ML6. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
How noisy are ceiling cassettes?
At normal fan speeds modern cassettes are quiet enough for offices and restaurants. We select fan speeds and unit sizes so they are not working flat out.
Can a cassette bring in fresh air?
Many cassettes have a knock-out for a fresh-air duct, so ventilation air can be connected. The ventilation system still needs designing separately.
