From enquiry to handover in Musselburgh
Survey and route
We check void depths and plan routes for supply and return ductwork. For sites in Musselburgh we confirm access and parking beforehand.
Design the air side

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.
Before you book in Musselburgh
Access
Filters and the unit need access for servicing — an access panel is non-negotiable.
Working hours
Most Musselburgh businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Return air
Every ducted unit needs a return air path; we design it rather than rely on gaps under doors.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Musselburgh 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.
Who we work with in Musselburgh
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
- Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.

Compliance in Scotland: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and systems with an effective output of 12 kW or more need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
