The steps for a project in Westhoughton
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.
Install
Ductwork and fans are installed and connected to controls. We keep work areas in Westhoughton screened and tidy at the end of each day.
Balance
Air flows are measured and balanced to the design.
Local points to consider
Heat recovery
Bringing in cold air in winter costs energy. Heat recovery units reclaim much of it.
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 Westhoughton 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.
