Points to plan for in Greenford
Run 24/7
Comfort units are not designed for continuous year-round use. We select equipment rated for it.
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.
Winter operation
Cooling is needed even when it is cold outside, so low-ambient controls are fitted.
Leased premises
If your Greenford 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.
