Local points to consider
Water systems
Fan coils depend on the chilled and heating water systems; we coordinate with whoever maintains the central plant.
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.
Access
Work is planned around tenants, often out of hours.
Leased premises
If your Berkshire 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.
