How we work in Newcastle-under-Lyme
Survey and loads
We calculate loads zone by zone and check roof or plant space, risers and ceiling voids. For sites in Newcastle-under-Lyme we confirm access and parking beforehand.
System design
Outdoor units, indoor units, branch boxes and pipe sizes are designed together, including the refrigerant charge and any leak detection.
Phased first fix
Pipework and controls cabling go in floor by floor, often out of hours in occupied buildings.
Pressure test and charge
The network is pressure tested, evacuated and charged with the calculated refrigerant quantity.
Commissioning
Each indoor unit is commissioned and the controls set up, with as-fitted drawings and F-gas records handed over.
Before you book in Newcastle-under-Lyme
Plant space
Outdoor units need clear air flow, structural support and safe access for servicing.
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.
Refrigerant in occupied rooms
Because one network carries a large refrigerant charge, small rooms on the system are checked against the safety limits in BS EN 378 and may need leak detection.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
Who we work with in Newcastle-under-Lyme
- Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
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.
