Pre Installation Guidelines

At HJS we would like any new equipment installation to be as smooth as possible, there are a few ways you can help us achieve this. We have created a handy guide for our arrival onsite including how the installation will be undertaken. This includes some expectation on you, the customer, to allow us the space and working area to complete our work without unforseen issues.

It would be useful for all new or altered electrics to be available before we attend and if required, compressed airlines to be in place to allow us to test and commission your new equipment preventing costly returns visits.

Our sales team will have explained all requirements before your installation date but if you are unsure please get in contact with us and we can ensure you are all set for your new equipment.
