How it works in Aberdeen
Measure the load
We read the IT and UPS load and allow for growth. For sites in Aberdeen we confirm access and parking beforehand.
Design resilience
Duty/standby units, changeover control and power supplies are designed together.
Install with minimal risk
Work around live equipment is planned with your IT team and kept clean.
Test failover
We test the changeover and alarms before handover.
Things to check in Aberdeen
Run 24/7
Comfort units are not designed for continuous year-round use. We select equipment rated for it.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
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.
Who we work with in Aberdeen
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.

In Scotland, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; systems with an effective output of 12 kW or more also need a periodic energy inspection.

Do you also cover Inverurie and Peterhead?
Yes. Alongside Aberdeen, we also cover Inverurie and Peterhead. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Aberdeen?
All of them, including AB10, AB11, AB12 and AB13. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
Why not use the office air conditioning?
Office systems switch off out of hours and are sized for people, not equipment that runs 24/7. A dedicated system is more reliable and cheaper to run.
Can we get alerts if the temperature rises?
Yes. We can fit a temperature alarm that sends alerts by email or text, or connects to your BMS or network monitoring.
