Local points to consider
Building Regulations
New or altered ventilation in Scotland must meet Section 3 of the Scottish building standards. We design to it and hand over the commissioning records.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Airdrie are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Fire
Ducts passing through fire-rated walls or floors need fire dampers.
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.
