Commercial ventilation brings outdoor air into a building and removes stale air, using fans and ductwork to supply and extract air at the rates needed for the number of people and the activity.

Bideford has a compact centre of shops, cafés and offices, with business units on its outskirts.

  • Filters, attenuators and fire dampers where required
  • Controls such as timers or CO2 sensors
  • Air-flow measurement and balancing
  • Commissioning records

  3. Install

    Ductwork and fans are installed and connected to controls.

  4. Balance

    Air flows are measured and balanced to the design.

Local points to consider

Heat recovery

Bringing in cold air in winter costs energy. Heat recovery units reclaim much of it.

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.

Building Regulations

New or altered ventilation in England must meet Approved Document F. We design to it and hand over the commissioning records.

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 Bideford

  • Pubs and bars: cooling for busy bars, function rooms and cellars, sited with neighbours in mind.
  • Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.
  • Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
  • Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.

Two rules matter for most businesses in England: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for more than 12 kW of air conditioning.
