How it works in Dunfermline
Measure the load

Test failover
We test the changeover and alarms before handover.
What to think about in Dunfermline
Winter operation
Cooling is needed even when it is cold outside, so low-ambient controls are fitted.
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.
Run 24/7
Comfort units are not designed for continuous year-round use. We select equipment rated for it.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Typical premises in Dunfermline
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
- Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
- Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
Compliance in Scotland: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and systems with an effective output of 12 kW or more need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
