How it works in Dundee and Angus

  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 Dundee and Angus 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.

Things to check in Dundee and Angus

Power

Larger systems need a dedicated supply from the distribution board. We check capacity at survey so there are no surprises on install day.

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.

Planning and noise

Outdoor units on commercial buildings often need planning permission — particularly on a front elevation, in a conservation area or on a listed building — and councils may ask for a noise assessment.

Neighbours and noise

Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.

Premises we work in around Dundee and Angus

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

In Scotland, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; systems with an effective output of 12 kW or more also need a periodic energy inspection.

Yes. Alongside Dundee and Angus, we also cover Fife, Perth and Kinross and Edinburgh. Each has its own page with local guide prices.

Will the system heat as well as cool?

Almost all modern commercial air conditioning is a heat pump that can heat as well as cool. Many businesses use it as their main heating in spring and autumn.

Which refrigerant will you use?

In Great Britain, new single split systems holding less than 3 kg of refrigerant cannot use a refrigerant with a global warming potential of 750 or more, so most are now R32. Larger systems may use R32, R454B or R410A depending on the equipment. We state the refrigerant and charge in the quote.
