How a job in Billingham works
Check the void
We confirm void depth, grid size and any obstructions such as beams, sprinkler pipes or ductwork. For sites in Billingham we confirm access and parking beforehand.
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.
Test and commission
The condensate pump is water-tested, the system pressure tested and charged, and air directions set.
What to think about in Billingham
Ceiling grid
Compact cassettes drop into a 600 mm grid; full-size units need the grid adapting around a larger panel.
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.
Condensate
Most cassettes include a pump. The discharge still needs a route to a drain, which we design at survey.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Billingham are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
