Where we work around Croydon
Croydon sits within London's dense commercial fabric: shopfronts, offices above, studios and venues, where outdoor unit positions and access need careful planning.
Postcode districts we cover in Croydon include CR0, CR7, CR9, CR90 and SG8. Neighbouring towns we cover include Wallington, Carshalton and Mitcham. Buildings across London range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.
What is included
- Survey of void depth and duct routes
- Ducted unit selection by capacity and external static pressure
- Supply and return ductwork, plenums and grilles
- Access panel for servicing
- Air-flow balancing and commissioning

The steps for a project in Croydon
Survey and route
We check void depths and plan routes for supply and return ductwork. For sites in Croydon we confirm access and parking beforehand.
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.
Balance and commission
Air flows are measured and balanced, then the system is commissioned.
Things to check in Croydon
Noise
Duct sizes and grille velocities are chosen to keep noise down in quiet rooms.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Croydon 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.
Return air
Every ducted unit needs a return air path; we design it rather than rely on gaps under doors.
Working hours
Most Croydon businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Who we work with in Croydon
- Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.
- Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
- Pubs and bars: cooling for busy bars, function rooms and cellars, sited with neighbours in mind.
Two rules matter for most businesses in England: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for more than 12 kW of air conditioning.

Low-profile units can work in around 250–300 mm, but the duct route often needs more. We measure at survey.
