A bypass avoids warming incoming air in summer.

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.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around County Armagh are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the council's planning service before work is booked.
