Before you book in Alton
Run 24/7
Comfort units are not designed for continuous year-round use. We select equipment rated for it.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Alton 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.
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
Leased premises
If your Alton 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.
