Air conditioning is one of the most important amenities in modern offices. You might take it for granted when it is there, but you will surely miss it if it’s gone.
Especially in London which has experienced record hot temperatures so far this year. With more heat waves on the horizon, find an office with air conditioning so you and your team can keep cool. We go above and beyond to ensure our work environments provide the ultimate comfort so our customers can stay focused on their work. Discover some of the best office spaces with air conditioning we have to offer.
Is Air Conditioning Important?
Air conditioning has historically not been considered a necessity. However, with more frequent heat waves and temperatures in London pushing 40°, having air conditioning in the workspace is certainly important. Here are some of the top reasons to rent an office space with air conditioning:
Air conditioning affects productivity – Many recent studies have shown that if a workplace is too warm it has a negative effect on employee productivity. Without air conditioning to control air temperature and humidity, the human body uses more energy to try and keep itself cool. This can cause people to feel lethargic and be less productive.
Air conditioning helps focus – Studies have also shown that employees working in cooler conditions tend to make fewer mistakes. It is thought that being kept comfortably cool helps people to focus on the task at hand rather than being distracted by any discomfort.
Air conditioning can help keep workers healthy – The air in an office can become polluted with harmful substances such as dust and bacteria. An air conditioning system replaces dirty air with clean air. By keeping the air clean, you can help to reduce respiratory problems such as allergies, hay fever and coughs. Not only can your team feel happier and healthier but this can also help reduce sick days.
