What to think about in Whitehaven
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.
Heat recovery
Bringing in cold air in winter costs energy. Heat recovery units reclaim much of it.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Whitehaven often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
Typical premises in Whitehaven
