Things to check in St Austell
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
Leased premises
If your St Austell premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Winter operation
Cooling is needed even when it is cold outside, so low-ambient controls are fitted.
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.
