Working in Canary Wharf
Premises in Canary Wharf are often in mixed-use buildings with shared roofs and tight access, so outdoor unit positions are agreed early.
We work across Canary Wharf's postcode districts, including E14 and SE16. We also cover Bow, Canning Town and Greenwich, all within easy reach of Canary Wharf. Buildings across London range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.

- IT load assessment (kW) and room survey
- Duty/standby (N+1) unit design
- Rotation and changeover controller

Things to check in Canary Wharf
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Canary Wharf 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.
Run 24/7
Comfort units are not designed for continuous year-round use. We select equipment rated for it.
Working hours
Most Canary Wharf businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.

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.
