Things to check in Heywood
Noise
Duct sizes and grille velocities are chosen to keep noise down in quiet rooms.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Heywood are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Access
Filters and the unit need access for servicing — an access panel is non-negotiable.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
