From enquiry to handover in Christchurch

  1. Check the void

    We confirm void depth, grid size and any obstructions such as beams, sprinkler pipes or ductwork.

  2. Set positions

    Cassettes are placed against the lighting and grid layout so air reaches the whole space.

  3. Hang and connect

    Units are hung on drop rods, connected to pipework and the condensate line. We keep work areas in Christchurch screened and tidy at the end of each day.

  4. Test and commission

    The condensate pump is water-tested, the system pressure tested and charged, and air directions set.

What to think about in Christchurch

Condensate

Most cassettes include a pump. The discharge still needs a route to a drain, which we design at survey.

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.

Void depth

Compact cassettes typically need around 250–300 mm of clear void; larger units need more. We measure before quoting.

Access and parking

Town-centre jobs in Christchurch 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.

Premises we work in around Christchurch

  • Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
  • Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.
  • Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.
  • Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.

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.
