Things to check in Stowmarket
Run 24/7
Comfort units are not designed for continuous year-round use. We select equipment rated for it.
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.
Working hours
Most Stowmarket businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.

Do you also cover Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds and Sudbury?
Yes. Alongside Stowmarket, we also cover Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds and Sudbury. Each has its own page with local guide prices.
Which postcodes do you cover in Stowmarket?
All of them, including IP14. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
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.
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.
