Before you book in Washington
Winter operation
Cooling is needed even when it is cold outside, so low-ambient controls are fitted.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Washington 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.
Run 24/7
Comfort units are not designed for continuous year-round use. We select equipment rated for it.
Working hours
Most Washington businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.

Which postcodes do you cover in Washington?
All of them, including NE37, NE38 and RH20. Give us your postcode when you enquire and we will confirm the visit details.
What temperature should a server room be?
ASHRAE guidance recommends equipment inlet air of about 18–27°C. Many small rooms are set at around 21–24°C to leave headroom if a unit fails.
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.
