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

Points to plan for in Loughton
Outdoor unit position
Outdoor units need air flow and access, and should be away from neighbours' windows to keep noise down.
Working hours
Most Loughton businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
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.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Loughton are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Premises we work in around Loughton
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
- Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.
