Wigston and surrounding areas
Wigston has a compact centre of shops, cafés and offices, with business units on its outskirts. Leicester is about 7 km away.
That includes premises in LE2, LE8 and LE18 and the surrounding districts. We also work in nearby Oadby, Leicester and Earl Shilton. Buildings across Leicestershire range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.
What is included
- Survey of the ceiling void depth and grid
- Compact 600 mm or full-size cassette selection
- Pipework, condensate pump and drain connection
- Fresh-air spigot connection where ventilation ductwork is available
- Wired controller or central control

How a job in Wigston 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 Wigston 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.
Things to check in Wigston
Condensate
Most cassettes include a pump. The discharge still needs a route to a drain, which we design at survey.
Working hours
Most Wigston businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Cleaning access
Filters need cleaning regularly, so cassettes should be reachable with a step ladder.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Typical premises in Wigston
- Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.
- Pubs and bars: cooling for busy bars, function rooms and cellars, sited with neighbours in mind.

- Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.

Which postcodes do you cover in Wigston?
All of them, including LE2, LE8 and LE18. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
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.
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.
