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.

How we work in Oxford

  1. Assess

    We work out how many people use each space and the fresh-air rate needed. For sites in Oxford we confirm access and parking beforehand.

  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.

  4. Balance

    Air flows are measured and balanced to the design.

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.

Conservation areas

Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Oxford 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.

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.

Typical premises in Oxford

  • Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.
  • 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.
  • Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.

Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
