• Decreased carbon emissions and an improved carbon footprint

• Full purification - making the air and environment cleaner and fresher

• Cost-savings via the use of renewable energy

Types of Air Conditioning UnitsThere are also a number of different designs of A/C systems that you can install/may have already installed in your premises.

These include:

• Commercial units - ideal for larger buildings - e.g. warehouses and factories

• Small scale units – ideal for smaller locations – e.g. offices, shops and conference rooms

Some of the different A/C styles available include wall mounted, floor and ceiling mounted and cassette.

• The units are as cost-efficient as possible and in fully functioning working order

• Your staff, clients and visitors can correspond in comfortable temperatures at all times
