Mount the units
Indoor unit on a mounting plate, outdoor unit on brackets or a frame with anti-vibration mounts.

What to think about in Herne Bay
Pipe routes
Shorter, simpler pipe routes are cheaper and more reliable. We plan routes before quoting.
Leased premises
If your Herne Bay 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.
One outdoor unit, many rooms
Multi-splits save wall space but share a single compressor. For server rooms or critical spaces we recommend dedicated systems.
Working hours
Most Herne Bay businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Typical premises in Herne Bay
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
- Pubs and bars: cooling for busy bars, function rooms and cellars, sited with neighbours in mind.
- Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.
- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.
Two rules matter for most businesses in England: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for more than 12 kW of air conditioning.
