Points to plan for in Blackheath

Resilience

A single unit is a single point of failure. N+1 means one unit can fail without the room overheating.

Conservation areas

Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Blackheath are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.

Monitoring

A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.

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.

Typical premises in Blackheath

  • Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
  • Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
  • Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
  • Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.

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.
