Points to plan for in Newbury
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
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.
Resilience
A single unit is a single point of failure. N+1 means one unit can fail without the room overheating.
Working hours
Most Newbury businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Types of premises we cover in Newbury

Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
Questions about server room cooling in Newbury
How much does server room cooling cost in Newbury?
Guide prices in Newbury run from about £4,550 to £17,195 per room (duty/standby pair), plus VAT. A typical job (small comms room, 2–5 kW IT load, N+1 pair) costs £4,550–£10,295 plus VAT. We fix the price in writing after a free survey.
Do you also cover Thatcham, Basingstoke and Didcot?
Yes. Alongside Newbury, we also cover Thatcham, Basingstoke and Didcot. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Newbury?
All of them, including RG14. 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.
How often should server room units be serviced?
At least twice a year, because they run continuously. Filters may need cleaning more often in dusty rooms.
