Before you book in Truro
Integration
Heat recovery pairs well with air conditioning, which handles the room heating and cooling.
Leased premises
If your Truro 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.
Summer bypass
A bypass avoids warming incoming air in summer.
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.
