Do you also cover Fife, Perth and Kinross and Edinburgh?
Yes. Alongside Dundee and Angus, we also cover Fife, Perth and Kinross and Edinburgh. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
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.
