Car park ventilation in South Glamorgan

Enclosed and underground car parks need mechanical ventilation to clear vehicle exhaust in normal use and, in many designs, to help clear smoke in a fire. We install and maintain jet fan and ducted extract systems with carbon monoxide detection and controls.

Every job in South Glamorgan gets a written quote before it starts and a commissioning record when it finishes. We cover Llantwit Major, Whitchurch, Rhiwbina, Cardiff and Barry and the villages around them.
