Things to check in Arbroath

Fire

Ducts passing through fire-rated walls or floors need fire dampers.

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.

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.

Leased premises

If your Arbroath 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 Arbroath

  • Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.

Compliance in Scotland: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and systems with an effective output of 12 kW or more need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
