Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Oadby are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Heat recovery
Bringing in cold air in winter costs energy. Heat recovery units reclaim much of it.
