How a job in Bushey works
Survey and route
We check void depths and plan routes for supply and return ductwork.
Design the air side
Grille sizes and positions are chosen for even air flow and low noise.
Install unit and ducts
The unit is hung with access for servicing; ductwork and grilles are fitted. We keep work areas in Bushey screened and tidy at the end of each day.
Balance and commission
Air flows are measured and balanced, then the system is commissioned.
Local points to consider
Return air
Every ducted unit needs a return air path; we design it rather than rely on gaps under doors.
Working hours
Most Bushey businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Access
Filters and the unit need access for servicing — an access panel is non-negotiable.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Bushey 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.

Is ducted air conditioning more expensive?
Usually a little more than a cassette of the same capacity, because of the ductwork, grilles and access panel. In return you get a much cleaner ceiling.
Can one ducted unit serve several rooms?
It can, but every room then shares one thermostat. Rooms with different uses are better on separate units or zones.
