Air Conditioning Sector – TV Studios & Filmsets

Air conditioning system averts television blackout in the North East

Posted Date 27/09/2021

There are few better examples of a first world problem than when you attempt to switch on your TV, only to be faced with a message that reads ‘no signal.’ Despite the somewhat trivial nature of this issue, it is still extremely frustrating when you are denied the opportunity to watch that television programme you had looked forward to all week! And it’s even more annoying when the disruption has been caused by something completely out of your control.

In order for a TV to function properly, we rely on the continued operation of transmitters. These electronic devices send digital signals through the air which are then received by aerials connected to your television set.

With companies under strict instructions to ensure social distancing is observed within their building, one of the world’s most well-known television broadcasters has relocated to larger premises to guarantee that the guidelines are safely practised.

Opting to vacate their normal UK offices for the foreseeable future, the organisation has instead moved into a converted warehouse to enable office staff, technical crew and other employees to work a sufficient distance apart. This has been a necessary measure during the COVID-19 crisis and meant that the entire workplace has been reconfigured to allow the desired segregation.
