What to think about in Kempston
Filters
Filters must be changed regularly to keep air flow and air quality up.
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.
Space
Units need space in the ceiling void or a plant area with access for filter changes.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Kempston are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
