Air Conditioning Business Installation in Chelsea, London

Roof Top Unit Installation, Chelsea

Most retailers now must comply with climate change legislation if they use air conditioning systems. Each retailer needs to undergo a legally required independent Energy Performance Air Conditioning Inspection process and carry out remedial work or upgrade equipment to comply with the legislation. Air conditioning is an overhead, but retailers these days need to give customers a pleasant environment to shop in or else they may go elsewhere. Anything that helps to retain a customer in the shop is essential in these competitive times.

There are also practical reasons for certain retailers to have an ambient temperature because of the nature of the products they are selling. This project for Sevenoaks Sound and Vision was to replace a roof top air conditioning unit. They sell a variety of electrical and electronic appliances that all generate heat so consequently with many demonstration models switched on in the show room, cooling is necessary to avoid the products overheating. When electrical units are clustered together such as computer servers in computer rooms or retail stores, they generate a lot of heat. These spaces need cooling to avoid heat build-up that will cause either malfunction or shut down of these units. Good air conditioning will protect the appliances and give comfort to staff and customers.

Good companies like Sevenoaks Sound and Vision comply with legislation and control their environment safely for the products it sells, while giving an excellent customer experience. From our point of view, it was greatly satisfying for us to complete this project even though the location was challenging (the views from the roof over London were great though!) We have good relationships with all our retail clients and have advised many of the best solution to fit their needs and comply with the legislation.

“Our open plan office houses around 100 people. Air distribution and draft was an issue for some of them prior to fitting air deflectors. Since the fitting we’ve not had a single complaint!”

How we got here

Air conditioning is known to have been applied in Ancient Rome: aqueduct water was passed through walls of houses to cool them. In medieval Persia similar techniques involving the use of cisterns and wind towers were used in the hot season to cool buildings.

Modern air conditioning emerged after advances in 19th Century chemistry, and it was Willis Haviland Carrier who invented and first used a large-scale electrical air conditioning system in 1902.

Air Conditioner Definition

An appliance, unit, system, or machine designed to stabilise the temperature and humidity of air within an area (used for both heating as well as cooling). A refrigeration cycle is the most common method of achieving this although sometimes evaporative coolers are used for comfort cooling inside buildings and vehicles.

The History of West London

West London as a sub-region of London was established in 2004 by the London Plan and was amended in February 2008. According to the London Plan, the city is divided into five sub-regions, including West London. Each region is charged with developing its own framework for implementation.

The West London sub-region consists of 7 boroughs namely Brent, Kensington & Chelsea, Ealing, Harrow, Hammersmith & Fulham, Hounslow and Hillingdon. By the year 2001, authorities placed the total population in these areas at 1.6 million with job opportunities for over 900,000 members of the populace. The 2008 amendment to the London Plan added Kensington & Chelsea into the sub-region. The London plan is a policy document that outlines mayoral priorities over a certain period of time. It acknowledges that not only is it better but it is also more efficient to group boroughs together and allow them to plan and develop as a unit.

One of the key establishments in West London is the Heathrow airport. This airport was built in 1944 and is now considered the busiest air transport facility in the whole world. The airport has no less than 6 terminals and is used by at least 100 airlines including the British Airways and Virgin Atlantic. Close to 70 million passengers pass through the airport every year.

The famous Wembley Stadium is located in West London. It is the home stadium of the English national football team. There are three football clubs playing in the English Premier League from West London. These are Chelsea, Fulham and newly promoted Queens Park Rangers. Other smaller clubs such as Brentford of League One also lie in the area. When Chelsea and Fulham come to play each other it is known as the West London Derby.

West London has an extensive land transport system. A cross-rail is being built in the sub-region that will connect the airport and various other locations around. The great western mainline, the A40 trunk road, and A4 road all pass through West London.

Apart from Heathrow, White City is also a great opportunity in the region. This is where BBC television centre is hosted. White city was established in 1908 during that year’s summer Olympics. Opened in 1960, BBC is the largest media station in England.
