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

Pressure test, evacuation, any extra refrigerant charge, then commissioning and handover.
Points to plan for in Westhoughton
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.
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.
Pipe routes
Shorter, simpler pipe routes are cheaper and more reliable. We plan routes before quoting.
Working hours
Most Westhoughton businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
