From enquiry to handover in Sunderland
Assess
We work out how many people use each space and the fresh-air rate needed.
Design
Fan, duct and grille sizes are designed for air flow, noise and energy use.

Ductwork and fans are installed and connected to controls. In Sunderland we agree timings around your opening hours.
Balance
Air flows are measured and balanced to the design.
Local points to consider
Fire
Ducts passing through fire-rated walls or floors need fire dampers.
Working hours
Most Sunderland businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Heat recovery
Bringing in cold air in winter costs energy. Heat recovery units reclaim much of it.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Sunderland are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
