KBS Corporate - Installation & Maintenance

Since becoming the owner of a new three-story office building in 2016, KBS initially installed air conditioning only in the communal areas, leaving the meeting rooms with standard heating. This setup worked well for keeping the offices warm, but when summer arrived, it became apparent that it was not effective.

As the sun streamed through the windows, staff quickly found themselves overheating, prompting the KBS team to realise the need for a more effective cooling solution.

KBS turned to K2 Healing and Cooling Solutions for installation and maintenance. Our expert team designed and implemented a tailored air conditioning system for optimal cooling throughout the office. With our ongoing maintenance support, KBS now enjoys a consistently comfortable and productive work environment.

AI Solicitors - Installation & Maintenance

When letting office space, making it as appealing as possible is crucial. The more modern and comfortable your serviced offices are, the higher your occupancy rates, and the more you can charge. Plus, if your own team shares the space, it’s important they benefit from a pleasant working environment, too.

That’s exactly what Bolton Accident Injury Solicitors had in mind when completing their 3-floor new build. Instead of separate radiators and air conditioning units, they wanted a modern, integrated heating and cooling system to ensure comfort throughout the building. K2 was brought on board to provide a solution that met their specific needs. Our team delivered an efficient and seamless air conditioning installation.

How far would you go for a good night's sleep?

How far would you go for a good night’s sleep? For Sam Zegroar, the upstairs of his home became blisteringly hot during the summer months. With only bi-folding doors in the master bedroom, he was running out of ideas to cool his and his young child's rooms at night.

Fans just weren’t cutting it, and standalone cooling units required cumbersome housing that simply didn’t fit his home’s aesthetics. During a home renovation, Sam realised it was time to find a serious solution for effective cooling.

Partnering with K2 Healing and Cooling Solutions, Sam found tailored air conditioning options that provided seamless cooling for his entire upstairs. With our expert air con design & installation, he transformed his hot bedrooms into cool, restful havens, proving that a good night's sleep is just a cooling solution away.

What are important considerations in the design of an air conditioning system?

The main goal of an AC system is to create a comfortable indoor environment for those inside. Factors such as temperature control, air distribution, and noise levels play a significant role in comfort. To achieve the best results, it’s essential to use properly sized units, well-designed ductwork, zoning solutions, and noise-reducing elements to ensure consistent comfort throughout the space.

What is the design temperature for air conditioning in the North West of England?

In the North West of England, air conditioning design temperatures are typically set between 21°C - 23°C (70°F to 73°F) indoors. Outdoor design temperatures generally range from 25°C - 28°C (77°F to 82°F), depending on the location. These factors ensure systems are appropriately sized for comfort, energy efficiency, and temperature fluctuations, with considerations for local microclimates, insulation, and building occupancy.

How do you calculate AC design?

To determine the apt air conditioner size for a room, start by multiplying the room's length by its width to find the area. Next, multiply this area by 25 BTU per square foot to calculate the cooling capacity for various weather conditions. For instance, if the room measures 15 feet by 12 feet, it totals 180 square feet. Multiply 180 by 25, resulting in 4500 BTU—this is the minimum cooling capacity required for the space. For more clarification, schedule a consultation with K2 AC design engineers.
