UK: Contractor Sub-Cool Fm has donated a £15,000 air conditioning system to Crawley Open House, a local charity providing support and services for the homeless and disadvantaged. 

The three Mitsubishi Electric outdoor condensers and six internal units will provide the charity’s brand-new resource centre with a climate-controlled environment for staff and clients alike. The air conditioners were supplied by Mitsubishi Electric, with Sub-Cool Fm carrying out the install and Cooke and Charman Group the electrical works.
