Things to check in Northwich
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.
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
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.
Who we work with in Northwich
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.

In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
