Local points to consider
Space
Units need space in the ceiling void or a plant area with access for filter changes.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
Filters
Filters must be changed regularly to keep air flow and air quality up.
Leased premises
If your Brentwood 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.
