We work across Lichfield's postcode districts, including WS13. We also work in nearby Burntwood, Tamworth and Aldridge. Buildings across Staffordshire range from converted period offices to modern units with deep ceiling voids, so we measure each site rather than relying on a standard package.

Before you book in Lichfield
Winter operation
Cooling is needed even when it is cold outside, so low-ambient controls are fitted.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Lichfield are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Resilience
A single unit is a single point of failure. N+1 means one unit can fail without the room overheating.
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.

Which postcodes do you cover in Lichfield?
All of them, including WS13. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
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.
What does N+1 mean?
One more unit than you need. If one fails, the other can carry the load while it is repaired.
