Salisbury and surrounding areas
Businesses in Salisbury range from independent shops and restaurants to offices, clinics and warehouses. Southampton is about 33 km away.
That includes premises in SP1 and the surrounding districts. We also cover Andover, Totton and Southampton, all within easy reach of Salisbury. Buildings across Wiltshire 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 we do
- Survey of void depth and duct routes
- Ducted unit selection by capacity and external static pressure

From enquiry to handover in Salisbury
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 Salisbury screened and tidy at the end of each day.
Balance and commission
Air flows are measured and balanced, then the system is commissioned.
What to think about in Salisbury
Noise
Duct sizes and grille velocities are chosen to keep noise down in quiet rooms.
Leased premises
If your Salisbury premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Access
Filters and the unit need access for servicing — an access panel is non-negotiable.
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.
Types of premises we cover in Salisbury
- 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.
In England, 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.
Common questions from businesses in Salisbury
How much does ducted air conditioning cost in Salisbury?
Guide prices in Salisbury run from about £3,595 to £8,250 per ducted zone, plus VAT. A typical job (reception or boardroom with one ducted zone) costs £4,095–£8,250 plus VAT. We fix the price in writing after a free survey.
Do you also cover Andover, Totton and Southampton?
Yes. Alongside Salisbury, we also cover Andover, Totton and Southampton. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Salisbury?
All of them, including SP1. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
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.
