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

Test and commission
Pressure test, evacuation, any extra refrigerant charge, then commissioning and handover.
Things to check in Nairn
Outdoor unit position
Outdoor units need air flow and access, and should be away from neighbours' windows to keep noise down.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Pipe routes
Shorter, simpler pipe routes are cheaper and more reliable. We plan routes before quoting.
Working hours
Most Nairn businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
