Air Conditioning

Commercial and industrial air conditioning systems

The sun does not have to be blazing for many working environments to be stuffy and uncomfortable. Whether this is caused by the ambient temperature outside or a central heating system, the result is the same and employee productivity can drop by as much as 50% if the temperature is too hot or too cold. Of course air conditioning can solve both of these problems being able to heat as well as cool.

The range of commercial systems available is mind boggling. To ensure that your organization has a system tailor-made for your particular circumstances we will send a surveyor to complete a full buildings survey and produce a detailed quotation with no hidden extras.

Easily the most familiar form of installed commercial air conditioning, 'split' systems are so called because they comprise an indoor unit (mounted on a wall, ceiling or floor) which recirculates the air in the room, cooling it and heating it to your requirements.

The indoor unit is linked to an outdoor unit (condenser), by a pair of small diameter copper pipes contained in an insulating jacket. The heat removed from the room is dissipated to the atmosphere by the outdoor condenser.

When heat is required, the system will run in reverse, taking heat from the outdoor condenser and transferring it to the indoor unit.

A wide range of manufacturers provide industrial air conditioning equipment from which we will choose to design your system. Our service is free and will give a clear proposal and costing for any project.

Operating in the same way as the 'split' system, the 'Multi-split' system enables a number of indoor units to be individually controlled from a single outdoor condenser.

Up to four units can be operated in cooling only or heat only form.

'Multi-split' systems offer an ideal way to treat a number of areas whilst minimizing the space required for outdoor units.

Variable Refrigerant Flow systems are the most modern and sophisticated development of the 'split' systems.

Up to sixteen indoor units can be connected to a single large outdoor condenser. The outdoor condenser is constructed to respond proportionately to the number of indoor units operating, each being controlled for heat or cool.

This is the ultimate in flexibility, individual indoor unit temperature can be changed independently, allowing personal choice as indoor and outdoor conditions change.

The VRF system offers a year round solution to indoor climate control with unrivalled flexibility and energy efficiency.

Air conditioning at its simplest! Mobile (or portable) air conditioners come in a variety of types and sizes. They comprise a room unit (about the size of a small refrigerator) that recirculates room air, cooling it or heating it as required.

The heat removed from the room is then dissipated outside in one of two ways. It is either blown from the unit via a 'tumble drier' type flexible plastic tube, or by means of a small outdoor unit (condenser) linked to the room unit by a short length of flexible refrigerant pipework.

Caution!
We have stopped selling these because it is our experience that they do not represent a sensible long term solution.
