What to think about in Canterbury
Water systems
Fan coils depend on the chilled and heating water systems; we coordinate with whoever maintains the central plant.
Working hours
Most Canterbury businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Condensate
Blocked trays are a common cause of ceiling stains; regular cleaning prevents them.
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.
