New AHU FAQs
How do I know if I need a new AHU? ↓
New AHUs should be considered when existing units are over 15-20 years old, when repair costs are increasing, when energy consumption is excessive, or when indoor air quality cannot meet current standards. We can provide a condition assessment to help inform your decision.
What types of AHUs do you install? ↓
We source and install a wide range of air handling units from leading manufacturers, selecting the most appropriate technology based on your specific requirements. We specialise in energy-efficient units with EC fans, high-performance filtration, and smart controls that optimise both air quality and energy use.
How long does installation take? ↓
Installation timeframes vary depending on the complexity and size of the project, typically ranging from 3-10 days. We develop detailed project plans to minimise disruption, often scheduling work during weekends or holidays for occupied buildings.
Will new AHUs save energy compared to older units? ↓
Yes, modern AHUs typically reduce energy consumption by 30-50% compared to units over 15 years old. Enhancements like EC fans, demand control ventilation, and heat recovery technology deliver significant ongoing operational savings while improving indoor environmental quality.
How do you ensure compliance with current regulations? ↓
All our installations comply with current building regulations including Part F (ventilation), Part L (conservation of fuel and power), and BS 40102 for indoor environmental quality. We provide comprehensive documentation for building control approval and facilities management records.
