Local points to consider
Resilience
A single unit is a single point of failure. N+1 means one unit can fail without the room overheating.
Working hours
Most Crowthorne businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
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.

Which postcodes do you cover in Crowthorne?
All of them, including RG45. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
What does N+1 mean?
One more unit than you need. If one fails, the other can carry the load while it is repaired.
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.
