New Trainee Business Developer for London Cool


Our new Trainee Business Developer, Ivo, has been telling us about his first week with us and his first trip (one of many he will be making) into London as he accompanied one of London Cool’s colleagues on his deliveries around the capital. 

‘We were pleasantly surprised to find that the traffic in West London was relatively light and we arrived by Marylebone Station in good time.

We were delivering an Avalanche  portable split type air conditioner unit  to a prominent firm of  architects as they needed additional cooling in their server room. Unloading one of these powerful units was a lot easier than I anticipated, although the condensers are very heavy. Carrying it looks easier than it is too.

After checking that the customer was happy with our setting up of the air conditioning unit, we made our way to London EC4.  An online food company needed portable cooling  equipment in their offices as their fixed air conditioning needed urgent maintenance and repair, proving that even in the most modern offices regular servicing  is necessary to keep a cooling system working at optimum level.

We were given visitor passes and made our way up to a beautiful reception area with a mix of industrial and modern architecture, which was interesting  for us as every pipe was visible in the ceiling.   We were given a brief tour of their offices before  we carried out our free site survey in the  rooms that required emergency temporary cooling.

The rooms had large glass walls and, as the doors couldn’t be left open we recommended evaporative coolers.  Other types of portable air conditioning units need to be vented to allow warm air to escape.

As part of becoming a great Business Developer, it is important to know every aspect of the business, so this has been a really good learning experience for me.’

My air conditioning is not working. What should I do?

As the outside temperatures rise and the sun is beating through the windows, it is tempting to turn your portable air conditioning down to as low as 16 degrees, thinking that the colder the air conditioner is set, the faster it will cool the room.  In fact, this is not how the cooling units work.  Whatever the temperature is set at, an air conditioner will pump out the same amount of cool air, and setting it at a lower temperature only tells it when to stop pumping out the cool air, rather than speeding up the cooling effect. The air conditioning units should ideally be set at around 24/25 degrees, to ensure that the units are not working so hard that they stop working altogether.  The models most affected by the hot temperatures are the Climatemaster, KY32, Trotec 2600, PKY12 or Compact 12, whereas units such as the Weltems, can cope with the exceptional temperatures. If your portable air conditioner does stop working or is not cooling the room, there are a few thi

The advantages of a maintenance agreement for your air conditioning

Regular air conditioner servicing has many benefits Increased efficiency of operation Reduced chance of a costly, major breakdown at the worst time Longer lifespan of the unit Increased comfort Lower operating costs Improved air quality Priority call-out Adherence to manufacturer’s extended parts warranty Energy Efficiency Regular air conditioner servicing can improve your air conditioner's efficiency. A clogged air filter in your air conditioning system can affect its efficiency as it will obstruct the air flow and increase the energy consumption.   A clean air filter in your room air conditioner, whether it is a ceiling recessed cassette system, or a ceiling suspended system, saves 15 percent energy compared with a dirty one.   Dirty condenser coils will make the air compressor run harder which increases the energy consumption and your electricity bill.   Lower Repair Costs If regular maintenance is not carried out, your air conditioner could eventu
