From enquiry to handover in Selby
Measure the load
We read the IT and UPS load and allow for growth. For sites in Selby we confirm access and parking beforehand.
Design resilience
Duty/standby units, changeover control and power supplies are designed together.
Install with minimal risk
Work around live equipment is planned with your IT team and kept clean.
Test failover
We test the changeover and alarms before handover.
Local points to consider
Winter operation
Cooling is needed even when it is cold outside, so low-ambient controls are fitted.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Selby often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
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.

Do you also cover Goole, Pontefract and York?
Yes. Alongside Selby, we also cover Goole, Pontefract and York. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Selby?
All of them, including YO8. 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.
