How we work in Gloucester
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 Gloucester 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.
Before you book in Gloucester
Ceiling grid
Compact cassettes drop into a 600 mm grid; full-size units need the grid adapting around a larger panel.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Gloucester are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Condensate
Most cassettes include a pump. The discharge still needs a route to a drain, which we design at survey.
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.
Who we work with in Gloucester
- Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
- Pubs and bars: cooling for busy bars, function rooms and cellars, sited with neighbours in mind.
- 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.
Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).

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.
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.
