From enquiry to handover in Cheshire
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. In Cheshire we agree timings around your opening hours.
Test and commission
The condensate pump is water-tested, the system pressure tested and charged, and air directions set.
Things to check in Cheshire
Void depth
Compact cassettes typically need around 250–300 mm of clear void; larger units need more. We measure before quoting.
Working hours
Most Cheshire businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Ceiling grid
Compact cassettes drop into a 600 mm grid; full-size units need the grid adapting around a larger panel.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
Typical premises in Cheshire
- Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.
- Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
Two rules matter for most businesses in England: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for more than 12 kW of air conditioning.
Questions about ceiling cassettes in Cheshire
How much does a ceiling cassette cost in Cheshire?
Guide prices in Cheshire run from about £2,095 to £4,850 per cassette, plus VAT. A typical job (shop or restaurant with 2–3 cassettes) costs £4,850–£13,250 plus VAT. We fix the price in writing after a free survey.
Do you also cover Greater Manchester, Merseyside and Lancashire?
Yes. Alongside Cheshire, we also cover Greater Manchester, Merseyside and Lancashire. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
What size cassette do I need?
It depends on the heat load. As a guide, a compact cassette suits a room of up to about 40–50 m² of office space; larger spaces use bigger units or several cassettes.
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.
