Points to plan for in Staines
Integration
Heat recovery pairs well with air conditioning, which handles the room heating and cooling.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Staines 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.
Space
Units need space in the ceiling void or a plant area with access for filter changes.
Leased premises
If your Staines 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.
