How a job in Shirley works
Check the void
We confirm void depth, grid size and any obstructions such as beams, sprinkler pipes or ductwork. For sites in Shirley 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.
Before you book in Shirley
Condensate
Most cassettes include a pump. The discharge still needs a route to a drain, which we design at survey.
Working hours
Most Shirley businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
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 Shirley 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.
Types of premises we cover in Shirley
