The steps for a project in Cheshire
Measure the load
We read the IT and UPS load and allow for growth.
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. We keep work areas in Cheshire screened and tidy at the end of each day.
Test failover
We test the changeover and alarms before handover.
What to think about in Cheshire
Run 24/7
Comfort units are not designed for continuous year-round use. We select equipment rated for it.
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.
Winter operation
Cooling is needed even when it is cold outside, so low-ambient controls are fitted.
Leased premises
If your Cheshire 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.
