Where we work around Didcot
Businesses in Didcot range from independent shops and restaurants to offices, clinics and warehouses. Oxford is about 16 km away.
We work across Didcot's postcode districts, including OX11. Neighbouring towns we cover include Abingdon, Oxford and Thatcham. Buildings across Oxfordshire range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.
Included as standard
- Heat load assessment per zone (occupancy, IT, lighting, solar gain)
- Zoned design so meeting rooms can be controlled separately
- Ceiling cassettes, ducted units or wall units to suit the ceiling
- Coordination with your fit-out contractor, ceiling and lighting layout
- Commissioning, handover and F-gas records

How we work in Didcot
Survey the floor
We look at the ceiling void, the grid layout, window orientation, occupancy and where the outdoor plant can go. For sites in Didcot we confirm access and parking beforehand.
Zone the space
Open-plan, meeting rooms, reception and IT rooms are treated as separate zones with their own controls.
Coordinate the ceiling
Unit positions are set against the lighting and grid layout so cassettes and grilles sit neatly.
Install around the business
Work is phased by area or done out of hours so staff can keep working.
Commission and train
Controls are set with sensible limits and scheduling, and we show your facilities lead how to manage them.
Things to check in Didcot
Leases and dilapidations
In a leased office, agree with the landlord who owns the system and what happens at the end of the lease.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Didcot 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.
Fresh air
Air conditioning recirculates air; it does not provide fresh air on its own. Many offices need ventilation alongside it to meet the Building Regulations.
Leased premises
If your Didcot 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.
Types of premises we cover in Didcot
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
