Where we work around Ilford
Ilford sits within London's dense commercial fabric: shopfronts, offices above, studios and venues, where outdoor unit positions and access need careful planning.
We cover every Ilford postcode, including IG1, IG4 and IG5. We also work in nearby Barking, Leytonstone and Stratford. Buildings across London range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.
What we do
- Fresh-air rate and unit sizing
- Supply and extract ductwork and grilles
- Intake and exhaust terminals
- Controls with CO2 or time control
- Balancing and commissioning

Things to check in Ilford
Filters
Filters must be changed regularly to keep air flow and air quality up.
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.
Integration
Heat recovery pairs well with air conditioning, which handles the room heating and cooling.
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.
Who we work with in Ilford
