Our coverage in Brecon
In a town like Brecon, a single wall unit for a shop or a cassette for a surgery makes a real difference in summer.
That includes premises in LD3 and the surrounding districts. We also work in nearby Merthyr Tydfil, Ebbw Vale and Aberdare. Buildings across Powys range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.
What we do
- IT load assessment (kW) and room survey
- Duty/standby (N+1) unit design
- Low-ambient kits so cooling works in winter
- High-temperature alarm or BMS / email alert
- Commissioning and maintenance plan

Points to plan for in Brecon
Resilience
A single unit is a single point of failure. N+1 means one unit can fail without the room overheating.
Working hours
Most Brecon businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Run 24/7
Comfort units are not designed for continuous year-round use. We select equipment rated for it.
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 Brecon
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.

In Wales, 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.

Do you also cover Merthyr Tydfil, Ebbw Vale and Aberdare?
Yes. Alongside Brecon, we also cover Merthyr Tydfil, Ebbw Vale and Aberdare. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Brecon?
All of them, including LD3. 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.
What temperature should a server room be?
ASHRAE guidance recommends equipment inlet air of about 18–27°C. Many small rooms are set at around 21–24°C to leave headroom if a unit fails.
