Coordination
Ceiling, lighting, sprinkler and electrical layouts are coordinated early.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Littlehampton are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Noise
Outdoor unit noise is designed in from the start, not fixed afterwards.
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.
