What to think about in Shrewsbury
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.
Summer bypass
A bypass avoids warming incoming air in summer.
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.
Premises we work in around Shrewsbury
- Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
- Gyms and leisure: high-capacity cooling and fresh air for gym floors, studios and changing rooms.

In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
