The steps for a project in Brighton

  1. Assess

    We work out how many people use each space and the fresh-air rate needed.

  2. Design

    Fan, duct and grille sizes are designed for air flow, noise and energy use.

  3. Install

    Ductwork and fans are installed and connected to controls. We keep work areas in Brighton screened and tidy at the end of each day.

  4. Balance

    Air flows are measured and balanced to the design.

What to think about in Brighton

Noise

Fans and grilles are selected and attenuated to keep noise down.

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.

Building Regulations

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

Leased premises

If your Brighton 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.

Who we work with in Brighton

  • Gyms and leisure: high-capacity cooling and fresh air for gym floors, studios and changing rooms.
  • Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.
  • Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.
  • Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.

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.
