Diversity
Not every room peaks at once; good design accounts for diversity so central plant is not oversized.
Leased premises

Noise
Outdoor unit noise is designed in from the start, not fixed afterwards.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Waterlooville 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.
