How it works in Gwent
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. In Gwent we agree timings around your opening hours.
Balance and commission
Air flows are measured and balanced, then the system is commissioned.
Things to check in Gwent
Void depth
Low-profile ducted units can fit voids of around 250 mm, but ductwork adds depth. We measure the route as well as the unit position.
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.
Noise
Duct sizes and grille velocities are chosen to keep noise down in quiet rooms.
Working hours
Most Gwent businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.

In Wales, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.

It can, but every room then shares one thermostat. Rooms with different uses are better on separate units or zones.
How much ceiling void is needed?
Low-profile units can work in around 250–300 mm, but the duct route often needs more. We measure at survey.
