The top floor
A whole day of warmth stands under the roof. At night the structure gives it back into the rooms, exactly when people are trying to sleep up there.
Gangelt, Heinsberg district
Cooling in the town where we are based ourselves.
Jansen GmbH Gebäudetechnik has its address on Geilenkirchener Straße in Gangelt. We size split air conditioning for houses, practices and offices, put the outdoor unit where it stays quiet and stays reachable, and connect it properly.

Why it stays warm
A summer day charges a building. The heat arrives through glass, through the roof and from the equipment in the room, and it does not leave again on its own in the evening. Anyone who only opens a window once it is warm indoors often lets in more heat still.
A whole day of warmth stands under the roof. At night the structure gives it back into the rooms, exactly when people are trying to sleep up there.
Glass lets the sun in and lets heat out only slowly. Without external shading a run of windows heats the room through half the afternoon.
Computers, equipment, lighting and people give off heat constantly. In a well-insulated room it stays there until somebody moves it out.
A wall that charged up during the day radiates for half the night. Airing helps only once the air outside is genuinely cooler than the air inside.
A split system takes the heat out of the room and hands it to the outdoor unit, which passes it to the open air. So it does not merely chill the air, it carries the load out of the building. How much capacity that needs is decided by the room, not by the brochure.
Services
From the first assessment to the clean after the season, the system stays in one pair of hands. That is why the pipe run, the connection and the equipment fit one another in the end.
We look at the rooms: size, glazed area, orientation, use, and what equipment stands in them. That decides what capacity makes sense and where the indoor unit should hang.
One indoor unit on one outdoor unit is the simplest answer. Where several rooms need covering, several indoor units share a common outdoor unit. Which suits better depends on the rooms and on the pipe route.
Facade, balcony, terrace or flat roof. We choose the place for airflow, sound, condensate and access, fix it to a wall bracket or a floor frame, and set the unit on vibration mounts.
The refrigerant line, the control cable and the condensate drain need a route that bothers nobody later. Core drilling with a fall to the outside, a properly sealed penetration, trunking rather than a visible loop.
The system takes its supply from the distribution board, with the right protection and proper labelling. That is our own trade and it does not get handed to a second firm.
Filters, heat exchangers and the condensate route silt up over time. Having that done regularly keeps the output up and keeps smells away.
The metre that matters
Two identical systems can feel completely different if the outdoor unit stands differently. Its position is not a leftover decision at the end of the installation. It is the part of the planning you notice most afterwards.

The unit draws air in and blows it out again. Stand it in a tight recess or hard against a wall and it takes in its own exhaust and works against itself. Free intake and free discharge come before every other wish.
The fan is audible, even on a quiet machine. We set it away from bedroom windows and away from the boundary, on damping mounts rather than rigidly against a thin wall that would carry the tone into the house.
In cooling, water forms at the indoor unit; in heating, at the outdoor unit. Both need a guided route that does not drip onto the footpath and does not turn into a sheet of ice in winter.
What nobody can reach does not get serviced. A position you can get to with a short ladder saves effort at every clean and keeps a later repair affordable.
The bracket belongs in load-bearing structure, not in external insulation alone. Add clearance from the ground for snow and leaves, and a spot where the unit does not catch the full midday sun.
Photographs
Four situations of the kind found on houses and small commercial buildings. They show what we look at when choosing a position.
Enquiry
A few lines are enough. We call you back, settle the questions on the telephone and arrange a visit when that suits.
How it runs
Five steps, in this order. None of them costs you a decision you are not yet able to make.
You ring us or write through the form, with a few sentences about the rooms.
We look at the rooms, the walls and the possible positions, and measure the pipe route.
Equipment, pipe route, electrical connection and effort are set out in writing in a list you can read at your leisure.
Indoor unit, penetration, pipework, outdoor unit, connection and commissioning. We clear up behind ourselves.
You get the controls explained, with the settings that are genuinely used day to day. Regular cleaning follows after that.
Gangelt
That is not a promise about coverage, simply the place where the firm sits. The journey to an appointment, to a correction or to a service is therefore short, and we know how buildings here are put together.

Questions
A split unit can reverse the direction and heat in the milder half of the year. Whether that makes sense for your house, and what it changes about the existing heating, we say after the visit and not before.
Audible, and how disturbing it is depends more on the position than on the data sheet. Distance from windows and from the boundary, damping mounts under the unit and a fixing that does not carry the tone into the wall achieve more than any figure in a brochure.
That depends on the building and on the position. We talk it through before the installation, and we place the unit so that clearance and sound towards the boundary are right from the start.
On a multisplit system one outdoor unit serves several indoor units. How many is a question of the sizing and of the pipe route, not of a fixed rule.
Yes. Filters and heat exchangers silt up, and the condensate route needs attention too. Regular cleaning keeps the output, saves electricity and prevents smells in the room.
Yes. Birgden, Breberen, Hastenrath, Langbroich, Schierwaldenrath, Stahe, Süsterseel and the remaining villages count as our own town, and so do the neighbouring municipalities in the Heinsberg district.
