What to think about in Bicester
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.
EC motors
Upgrading old motors to EC motors reduces electricity use and noise.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
