Factory Solutions Limited (FSL) describes itself as a problem solver for heating and cooling systems. Here director Neville Duke sheds some light on what this Worcestershire based company is all about
Who you are to the UK HVAC market and how have you evolved in the UK?
FSL commenced trading during the 2008 recession when the demand for mechanical services including HVAC designs declined and businesses requiring ductwork and pipework schemes turned to small independents for support. FSL continues to assist end users, ductwork and pipework contractors for these services. Project work from our customers has taken the FSL business to Scandinavia and the Middle East.
Describe the range of products you supply relevant for the HVAC market and to which customers?
Much of our work is in food manufacturing where food processing overheats production lines and solutions are required. We measure airflows entering and

leaving specific production areas and calculate the heat gain from the processing operation. The report generated may be given by the end user to contractors competing for the HVAC installations. This has the effect of ‘levelling the field’ so that the tenders may be compared and the KPI’s assessed. With experience in designing both mixing and displacement air systems FSL will produce an ‘outline’ design and write a contractor brief to guide the design in specific ventilation and cooling problems.
Which or your products/services are in high demand and what is driving this?
‘Apply some science and cut the guesswork’ is our Mantra especially with airflow measurement and heat gain studies, which continue to engage most of our time.
In addition, so are pipework services as we independently check and assess designs prior to, or even following their installation.
