Before you book in Wigan
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
Working hours
Most Wigan businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Winter operation
Cooling is needed even when it is cold outside, so low-ambient controls are fitted.
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.
Types of premises we cover in Wigan
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
