How it works in Truro
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 Truro screened and tidy at the end of each day.
Balance and commission
Air flows are measured and balanced, then the system is commissioned.
Before you book in Truro
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 Truro are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Return air
Every ducted unit needs a return air path; we design it rather than rely on gaps under doors.
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.
Typical premises in Truro
- Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.
- Pubs and bars: cooling for busy bars, function rooms and cellars, sited with neighbours in mind.
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
- Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.
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.
