Local points to consider
Building Regulations
New or altered ventilation in England must meet Approved Document F. We design to it and hand over the commissioning records.
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.
Noise
Fans and grilles are selected and attenuated to keep noise down.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Consett are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
