The steps for a project in Bury St Edmunds
Assess
We work out how many people use each space and the fresh-air rate needed.

Balance
Air flows are measured and balanced to the design.
What to think about in Bury St Edmunds
Noise
Fans and grilles are selected and attenuated to keep noise down.
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 England must meet Approved Document F. We design to it and hand over the commissioning records.
Leased premises
If your Bury St Edmunds 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.
