The steps for a project in Hoddesdon

  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. In Hoddesdon we agree timings around your opening hours.

  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.
