How a job in County Antrim works
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 County Antrim 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.
Local points to consider
Cleaning access
Filters need cleaning regularly, so cassettes should be reachable with a step ladder.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around County Antrim are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the council's planning service before work is booked.
Condensate
Most cassettes include a pump. The discharge still needs a route to a drain, which we design at survey.
Working hours
Most County Antrim businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.

Questions about ceiling cassettes in County Antrim
How much does a ceiling cassette cost in County Antrim?
Guide prices in County Antrim run from about £1,995 to £4,550 per cassette, plus VAT. A typical job (shop or restaurant with 2–3 cassettes) costs £4,550–£12,395 plus VAT. We fix the price in writing after a free survey.
Do you also cover County Down, County Armagh and County Londonderry?
Yes. Alongside County Antrim, we also cover County Down, County Armagh and County Londonderry. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
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.
Do I need a suspended ceiling for a cassette?
Yes, or a ceiling void with access. In solid ceilings a wall-mounted or ducted unit is usually the better option.
