Air handling unit installation: units and industrial fans
We install ventilation units in industrial halls and commercial buildings: air handling units, louvred units, fans. We lift the equipment, position it, fix it on its supports and connect it to the ductwork. We make the supports and access platforms in our workshop, and we work across Romania.
The units we install
- Air handling units: indoors, on a mezzanine or on a platform, with flanged connections to the ductwork.
- Louvred units: on the outside of the hall or on the roof, taking in fresh air or exhausting stale air.
- Industrial fans: axial and other types, installed in units or on their own frames.
- Heat recovery units: installed and connected into the network, to the building services design.
Louvred units link the ventilation system to the outside, and the louvres keep rain out of the ductwork. We install them together with the ductwork that serves them, with the same crew, from lifting to connection.
The type, size and weight of the units are the ones in the building services design and in the supplier documentation. Tell us what your design specifies and we confirm what is included in our scope.
Lifting and positioning
Units are usually installed high up: on the roof, on the façade or on a mezzanine. Outdoors we raise the unit with a boom lift, bring it into position, align it and fix it. Indoors, on a mezzanine, units can be raised with a hoist mounted above them.
Working from a lift suits jobs where the equipment is heavy and the fixing point is at height with no access from a fixed platform. If the hall runs during the works, we plan the installation by zone, within the windows agreed with you.
We plan the lift before we come on site: boom lift access, where it stands, and the weight and size of the unit. We also raise the duct sections that connect to the unit, in the same job.
Supports, platforms and connection
A unit sits on a steel frame or platform, and it needs access for servicing. We make them in our workshop, to the real dimensions of the unit and of the structure they are fixed to, so you do not wait for another supplier. Then we connect the unit to the ductwork with flanges, bends and branches.
Fans and smaller units can sit on brackets or on frames fixed to the hall structure. We settle the fixing method at the site survey, based on the existing structure. If the unit needs servicing access, we size the platform with you before we make it.
Electrical connection and automation are agreed in the quote. Tell us what your design specifies and we confirm what is included in our scope.
How the job runs
- 01The design and the unit dataYou send them with the site location and the target date. If you do not have a design, you tell us what problem needs solving.
- 02Site surveyWe check the installation spot, the access for lifting and the structure the supports are fixed to.
- 03Itemised quoteLifting, supports, platform, ductwork and labour are priced separately.
- 04Supports and installationWe make the supports, lift and fix the unit and connect it to the ductwork.
- 05HandoverWe hand over the works once the connections are done.
What to send for a quote
- The building services design: the plans and details of the units and the connections.
- The units: type, dimensions and weight, from the supplier datasheet.
- Installation spot: roof, façade, mezzanine or indoors, and the access for a boom lift.
- The supports: whether you already have frames or we need to make them.
- Location and deadline: where the work is and when it must be finished.
From our work
Frequently asked questions
Are the units included in the quote?
Tell us whether you already have the equipment or need it included. Our quote lists ductwork, equipment, supports and labour separately.
Can you lift a heavy unit onto a roof?
Yes, with a boom lift. We plan the lift after the site survey, based on the weight and size of the unit and the access from the ground.
Do you make the frame or platform for the unit?
Yes. We make them in our workshop, to the dimensions of the unit and of the existing structure.
Do you do the electrical connection or automation?
This is agreed in the quote. Tell us what your design specifies and we confirm what is included in our scope.
Where do you work?
Across Romania and, for larger projects, in the EU. Our workshop and crew are based in Cluj-Napoca, Romania.
Request a quote for installation
