The steps for a project in Motherwell
Check the void
We confirm void depth, grid size and any obstructions such as beams, sprinkler pipes or ductwork. For sites in Motherwell 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.
Points to plan for in Motherwell
Condensate
Most cassettes include a pump. The discharge still needs a route to a drain, which we design at survey.
Leased premises
If your Motherwell premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
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 Motherwell are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
