How it works in Bedfordshire
Assess
We work out how many people use each space and the fresh-air rate needed. For sites in Bedfordshire we confirm access and parking beforehand.
Design
Fan, duct and grille sizes are designed for air flow, noise and energy use.
Install
Ductwork and fans are installed and connected to controls.
Balance
Air flows are measured and balanced to the design.
Local points to consider
Noise
Fans and grilles are selected and attenuated to keep noise down.
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.
Heat recovery
Bringing in cold air in winter costs energy. Heat recovery units reclaim much of it.
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.
Types of premises we cover in Bedfordshire
- Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.

In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
