What to think about in Gillingham
Integration
Heat recovery pairs well with air conditioning, which handles the room heating and cooling.
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.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Gillingham often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
