Things to check in Cornwall
Water systems
Fan coils depend on the chilled and heating water systems; we coordinate with whoever maintains the central plant.
Leased premises
If your Cornwall 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.
Condensate
Blocked trays are a common cause of ceiling stains; regular cleaning prevents them.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Cornwall are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
