Covering Newbury and nearby
Businesses in Newbury range from independent shops and restaurants to offices, clinics and warehouses. Basingstoke is about 23 km away.
That includes premises in RG14 and the surrounding districts. Nearby, we also cover Thatcham (about 4 km), Basingstoke (about 23 km) and Didcot (about 24 km). In Newbury, outdoor unit positions are often the deciding factor: a rear flat roof or yard is usually straightforward, while a front elevation may need landlord or planning consent first.
What is included
- 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

The steps for a project in Newbury
Survey the floor
We look at the ceiling void, the grid layout, window orientation, occupancy and where the outdoor plant can go.
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. We keep work areas in Newbury screened and tidy at the end of each day.
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.
Before you book in Newbury
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.
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.
Out-of-hours use
If staff work late or weekends, zoning lets you run only the areas in use.
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.
Premises we work in around Newbury
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.

Ceiling cassettes or wall units for an office?
Cassettes suit offices with a suspended ceiling and spread air evenly in four directions. Wall units are cheaper and suit small rooms or solid ceilings. Ducted units are the most discreet.
What size air conditioning does an office need?
As a rough guide, offices need about 80–125 W of cooling per square metre, more with lots of glazing, dense occupancy or IT. A heat load survey gives the real figure for each zone.
