How a job in Bootle works

  1. Survey

    We measure the space, check the ceiling void, wall construction, glazing and occupancy, and agree where indoor and outdoor units can go.

  2. Design and quote

    You get a written specification with unit sizes, positions, pipe routes and a fixed price — plus any planning, landlord or noise points to resolve first.

  3. First fix

    Pipework, cabling and condensate runs go in, usually above ceilings or in neat trunking, before the units are hung. We keep work areas in Bootle screened and tidy at the end of each day.

  4. Install and test

    Indoor and outdoor units are fitted, the system is pressure tested with nitrogen, evacuated and charged with refrigerant.

  5. Commission and hand over

    We set up controls, check air flows and temperatures, show your team how to use it and hand over the F-gas and commissioning paperwork.

Local points to consider

Landlord consent

Most commercial leases need the landlord's written consent before external units or wall penetrations go in. We can provide drawings and unit data sheets for the request.

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.

Condensate

Every cooling unit produces water. We route it to a drain by gravity where possible and fit a quiet condensate pump where not.

Leased premises

If your Bootle 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.

Types of premises we cover in Bootle

  • Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.

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).
