Heat recovery pairs well with air conditioning, which handles the room heating and cooling.
Working hours
Most Penarth businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Space

Leased premises
If your Penarth 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.
