How we work in Slough
Measure the load
We read the IT and UPS load and allow for growth. For sites in Slough 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
Run 24/7
Comfort units are not designed for continuous year-round use. We select equipment rated for it.
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.
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Slough are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
